Tried with the latest revision (106714) and it's still failing. Is anyone else
seeing that error?

* Start M-x gdb with "gdb -i=mi"
* type "so"
* complete-symbol

* C-g
* The "(gdb) " prefix disappears and "so" expands into "source"

I've tested it with GDB versions 7.0.1-2+b1 and 7.3-1+b1 (debian).

Here's the build info given by report-emacs-bug:
