According to "man gdb", the syntax for --args is:

    gdb [options] --args prog [arguments]

So the first thing after "--args" is the program name (prog), and *then* 
come the programs' arguments. Try this:

    gdb --args testtoken ' (name testtoken endchar \) <
 > testtoken.adb | (trace) count lines|cons '
