If you're in the top Ethereal directory on a *nix system, try
  LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:epan/.libs:wiretap/.libs
  gdb .libs/ethereal

(Would be nice to make libtool work though)
Did that before I learned about the libtool option. Even setting the LD_LIRBRARY_PATH and running gdb, gdb does not find the symbols. I'm sure there is some gdb magic incantation I can call up and have it find the debug symbols and the source; I just don't know what it is. :( 

If I do "list" in gdb, I get
../../libgcc2.c: No such file or directory
in ../../gcc/libgcc2.c

This is on Solaris 8, GCC 3.4.2 and GDB 6.3.
