gdb makes a pre-parsed cache of the symbols for the libraries in /System/Library. If any of these libraries change, the cache for that library will become invalid. To regenerate the cache, just do:

sudo /usr/libexec/gdb/cache-symfiles

and the warnings will go away.

Thanks,

I get them too. I first noticed them after the latest security update. I
did sudo fixPrecomps -force, but it didn't help.
