Like with any other function:

  (gdb) break open_stackdumpfile

The argument to the "break" command can be:

  . a line number ("break 123")
  . an offset ("break +10" or "break "-20")
  . a function name ("break func") -- this is your case
  . a file name and line number ("break foo.c:123")
  . a file name and a function name ("break foo.c:func")
  . an address ("break *0x12345678" or "break &expr")

See the node "Specify Location" in the GDB manual for more info.
