Well, I didn't put them there, but it certainly makes coding easier because
GUD tooltips use a lot of the generic code.

Maybe thats a general rule but one needs to be quantitative. tooltip.el is
about 500 lines and about half that code is for GUD. So maybe 250 lines get
loaded in Emacs through loadup.el but I'm not sure that it amounts to much in
memory. On the other hand, gud.el is about 3000 lines, so moving GUD tooltips
there would make the file over ten times larger than tooltip.el. Can you see
any practical benefit in doing this?
