When gud-gdb is started, it uses `switch-to-buffer', which places
*gud-foo* in the window previously occupied by foo.c. When gdb gets
"start", foo.c replaces *gud-foo* instead of *scratch* because foo.c has
been in the window that *gud-foo* occupies, and not in the window that
*scratch* occupies. This is what `display-buffer-in-previous-window'
does, no?
