Sorry I did not analyze exactly your case but ensure your glibc contains this
patch fixing how GDB deals with gnu-ifuncs:

	commit f85fa27058eb7d4b56b8deaf885064cf8d730f68
	Author: H.J. Lu <hjl.tools@gmail.com>
	Date:   Thu Aug 9 16:04:37 2012 -0700
	    Avoid DWARF definition DIE on ifunc symbols

Besides that there is already stable gdb-7.6 but I do not know about any
specific change there for gnu-ifunc.
