I don't think so, because of from documentation of gcc:
`-O0'
     Reduce compilation time and make debugging produce the expected
     results.  This is the default.

so it should be -O0 if no optimization parameters was used,
any way:

>gcc -O0 -ggdb -Wall test.c -o test_gdb && gdb test_gdb

(gdb) br f
Breakpoint 1 at 0x80483f8: file test.c, line 6.
(gdb) r
Starting program: /var/tmp/test_gdb 
f was called

Program exited normally.
(gdb) 

the problem is place of breakpoint,
(gdb) info breakpoints
Num     Type           Disp Enb Address    What
1       breakpoint     keep y   0x080483f8 in f at test.c:6

(gdb) li f
1       #include <stdio.h>
2
3       void f(int gwk, double gsec)
4       {
5               while (gsec < 0.0) {
6                       gwk--;


so as you can see I put breakpoin of "f", but gdb put breakpoint
into while loop, and never happened, because of this example gsec >= 0
