Subject: Does gdb understand copy relocation?

On targets with copy relocation, when executable references a data
symbol defined in DSO, a copy relocation will be used to copy the
definition from DSO to executable and the copy in executable will be
used by the process. But gdb I am using insists using the one in DSO.
Is there a way to teach gdb about copy relocation?
