[issue40746] test_gdb failing on Raspbian on 3.9, regression from 3.8

Some data from a recent build:
https://buildbot.python.org/all/#/builders/645/builds/480

That's 32-bit ARM, armv7l ABI with GCC 8.3 and GDB 8.2.

Python is built with -Og optimization level. In my experience, gdb fails to read debug symbols when Python is optimized at -Og level. Last time I asked a gdb developer, he told me that he always use -O0, so do I.
