GDB 10.2 does not seem to access "C:\Windows\CSC\v2.0.6\namespace\lib", nor > "\\lib\debug\Users\MyUsername\...". Is this related to a recent change?

Maybe Luis or someone else does. In general, AFAIK GDB searches directories recorded in the program's debug info, and also some source directories. See the node "Source Path" in the GDB manual. Also try "show solib-search-path". The "show libthread-db-search-path" command could also be relevant; see "Threads" in the manual.
