Debugger?
#1
How is the debugger support in FB?
Could gdb be used?

Yes, but there's no symbol declarations yet, only functions will appear listed.

Insight is much simpler to use (it's a GDB gui), but only installing Cygwin you can get it, there's no single download package that i know, for version 6.

Does it mean I could not watch values of variables?

Exactly, symbols other than functions are not added yet, the stabs format used by the GNU binutils to support debugging has almost no documentation, as any OSS.. everything has to be based on try-and-error, what takes a lot of time to be done.

I think this could help:

EDIT: also this seems to have lots of useful info:
