Please write in English if possible, because the Emacs maintainers
usually do not have translators to read other languages for them.

Your bug report will be posted to the emacs-pretest-bug@gnu.org mailing list.

Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug.  If you can, give
a recipe starting from `emacs -Q':

                                 * * *

In Emacs 23.1.90.1, tab completion in M-x gud-gdb produces spurious
control-M characters; it almost appears as if Ctrl-M is being appended
to each symbol name offered for completion.

Below, I will give steps to reproduce this behavior, and the results
that I observe when following these steps.  For this example, any time
that you see "^M" (consisting of two characters -- "^" and "M"),
please interpret this as the visual representation of the single
character Ctrl-M (0x0d).

First we will need a C program to debug.  I will use the following
program:

---------- begin demo2.c --------------
#include <stdio.h>

static void add_one(int * x) {
   *x += 1;
}

static void add_two (int * x) {
   *x += 2;
}

int main(void) {
   int val = 0;
   add_one(&val);
   add_two(&val);
   printf("val=%d\n", val);
   return 0;
}
---------- end demo2.c   --------------

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
------------------

(1) Compile demo2.c.
     gcc -g -o demo2 demo2.c

(2) start emacs.
     emacs -Q -nw demo2.c

(3) start the debugger
     M-x gud-gdb RET

     Emacs offers the following:
     "Run gud-gdb (like this): gdb --fullname demo2"

     Press RETURN to accept the gdb command line.

(4) Emacs starts the debugger in buffer "*gud-demo2*", and displays
     the "(gdb)" prompt.

     At the gdb prompt enter the commands

       - b main RETURN
       - run RETURN

(5) Emacs begins to run demo2 under gdb, and breaks in the first line
     of main.

(6) I'd like to set a breakpoint in function "add_one".  At the (gdb)
     prompt in the *gud-demo* buffer, I type "b add TAB".

     After I press TAB, emacs displays a *Completions* buffer with the
     following:
---------------------------------
In this buffer, type RET to select the completion near point.

Possible completions are:
add_fdes^M                add_one^M                 add_profil^M
add_two^M                 addcmd^M                  addr2ascii^M
---------------------------------

     Note that every symbol is suffixed with "^M"

(7) At the (gdb) prompt in the "*gud-demo*" buffer, I type the
     characters "_o", so that the current (gdb) prompt line contains
     "b add_o".  I press TAB to complete the function name.

     *gud-demo* completes the function name, and displays
---------------------------------
(gdb) b add_one^M
---------------------------------

     Note that a "^M" was appended to the completed symbol name.

(8) At the (gdb) prompt, I type RETURN to create the breakpoint.
     Emacs responds with
---------------------------------
Breakpoint 2 at 0x1f88: file demo2.c, line 4.
(gdb) (gdb)
---------------------------------

     Note that *gud-demo* displays two (gdb) prompts after I press RETURN.

(9) At the (gdb) prompt, I type "c RETURN" to continue running demo2.

(10) After reaching the breakpoint in add_one, I type "c RETURN" to
      continue again.  demo2 continues executing and exits.

After demo2 exits, the *gud-demo2* buffer contains the following
contents:

---------------------------------

---------------------------------


HOW THIS DIFFERS FROM EXPECTED BEHAVIOR
---------------------------------------

  * I did not expect to see ^M appended to each symbol name in the
    *completions* buffer (step 6).

  * I did not expect to see ^M appended to the completed symbol name
    (step 7).

  * I did not expect to see the extra (gdb) prompt in step 8.
