gdb mode utterly broken on OS X 10.6 with latest

[John Wiegley]

Is anyone able to use M-x gdb on OS X 10.6?  Using -Q to avoid any local configurations, I see tons of extra whitespace in the buffer now, following by  a warning about something my GDB can't support, and then at every prompt I see this (bucketloads of whitespace omitted):

                                 (gdb) 
time={wallclock="0.00004",user="0.00003",system="0.00001",start="1270668244.493334",end="1270668244.493374"}

Emacs 23 works just fine.  Is there something I'm missing?

branch or trunk?

I believe this is another problem with Apple GDB. Could you please tell
which GDB version are you using exactly?

You could enable `gdb-enable-debug` customization variable, then run
`M-x gdb` and after you get you problem, run

    M-x pp-eval-expression RET gdb-debug-log RET

and send (in attachment) the contents of `*Pp Eval Output*` buffer you
get, so we can see what GDB output confuses our precious Emacs.

Do you see different results with "M-x gdb" vs "M-x gud-gdb"?
