The problem could be that the binary ('test-log') has not been loaded
into memory by 'ld.lib.so' yet. I would suggest to use
'ports/run/gdb_monitor_interactive.run' or
'ports/run/debug_nitpicker.run' as template for your use case. These run
scripts execute some GDB commands for initialization, like breaking at
'binary_ready_hook_for_gdb()' first and then loading the symbols of the
appplication and its shared libraries.
