I run Emacs using `runemacs' in the bin directory. There is no `gdb' there. I do have an old Windows gdb.exe that dates from 2010. I don't recall where I got it. I tried that with the args you cited, and that crashed immediately - see attached screenshot. I see tars of source code here: http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/gdb/. I don't see any Windows binaries at http://www.gnu.org/software/gdb/ (e.g. at http://www.gnu.org/software/gdb/download/).
