But I'm not sure whether we should do anything about this.  The user may
have altered many things in the window conf between saying `M-x gdb'
(which pops up all those windows) and saying "quit" (which removes all
the popped-up windows).

Restoring a previous window configuration (which may, after all, include
killed buffers and other oddities) after exiting something like a gdb
session doesn't seem like something everybody'd want.  But we could
offer it behind a user option, I guess.

Anybody got an opinion?
