When I start debugging I see the following in GDB console:
No symbol table is loaded. Use the "file" command.
No symbol table is loaded. Use the "file" command.
No symbol table is loaded. Use the "file" command.
No symbol table is loaded. Use the "file" command.
Quit
and none of the breakpoints is getting hit..
The binary I'm debugging certainly has debug info because outside of Eclipse gdb works fine. I've changed nothing in project settings or whatever, it just suddenly stopped working after a couple of runs. Tried restarting Eclipse - didn't help 
Is this a bug?

Eclipse hates me ! wrote on Fri, 07 December 2012 16:13Still doesn't work! I have multiple C and C++ projects in the same workspace and none of them can be debugged (even a new project)!
However on another workspace I'm able to run Hello World project and gdb loads symbols for it...
Is there something in workspace specific settings I could screw up?
- Did you choose a Release build configuration?
- Do you use your own Makefile?
- Is the debug option (-g) for gcc enabled?
You should provide more info if you want some help.

I had to create another workspace and import there my projects. And that worked.
I have no fucking idea why it didn't work for the old workspace. The projects are makefile-based projects, both makefile and project file are generated by CMake. As I said, outside of Eclipse exact same binary was loaded by gdb without any problems and I was able to debug it. Moreover, when I actually typed the "file path/to/executable" command in Eclipses' gdb console like I was told and then typed "continue", it worked as well. So I would guess it's something wrong with the gdb launcher or whatever starts gdb process.

Sounds like you used the wrong application/path in the Eclipse Debug Launch Configuration.
