That's interesting, as it worked for me.  We should try to see what differs.

Perhaps it's something involved with your startup.  Can you try running 
Emacs with the -Q option instead?  That is, instead of this:

(gdb) r

do this:

(gdb) r -Q

Sorry if this all seems slow and painstaking, but that's life with 
remote debugging.

For what it's worth, I tried to reproduce the problem with encfs on my 
machine (Fedora 21 x86-64) with a local directory, and could not 
reproduce it.
