GNU gdb do not debug application built by icc (Intel C compiler) on Linux

I'm trying debug application using GNU gdb that built by icc (Intel C compiler). But gdb not see any line in file (but if I build app using gcc everything fine). I have never used before icc compiler so maybe I do something wrong. Please help :)

icc - Version 8.0

gdb - GNU gdb (GDB) Red Hat Enterprise Linux (7.2-90.el6)

OS - Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 6.8 (Santiago)

test.c:

1  #include<stdio.h>
2
3  int main(int argc, char **argv)
4  {
5          int count = 0;
6          while(1)
7          {
8                  printf("Work In %d \n",count);
9                  count++;
10                  sleep(2);
11          }
12  }

Run build: icc -g -inline_debug_info --gsplit-dwarf ./test.c -o test

And when I tryied to break line (8 line for example) in gdb, gdb shows: No line 8 in file "./test.c"

(gdb) break 8

Output:

080487e4 <main>: main(): /tmp/./test.c:4 ... 
80487f0: 56 push %esi /tmp/./test.c:5
80487f1: c7 45 fc 00 00 00 00 movl $0x0,-0x4(%ebp) /tmp/./test.c:6 ...

8048812: e8 41 fe ff ff call 8048658 <printf@plt> 

This might be a confusion between test.c and ./test.c.

Does the picture change if you use icc -g test.c -o test instead?
(Using ./test.c is quite unusual and completely unnecessary.)
