Congrats.  :-)

Strange.  You used to get lots of debug right?  Or did you fiddle with
the amount of debug that schedule gives by default?

When you run:

$ gdb /usr/bin/schedule

and get the

gdb>

prompt, you then need to type "run" and hit return:

gdb> run
...

gdb does not actually run the program when you start it.  It only loads
it into gdb ready for you to instruct it.

In this case however the output from strace is probably more useful:

$ strace -f /usr/bin/schedule

Nope.  I am using schedule on my Mandrake Cooker box just fine.  Has not
even been recompiled in a long time.

Maybe the recompilation has introduced something new?
