OK, running M-x gdb will lead to the bug, but M-x gud does not,  
despite running same line (gdb --annotate=3 src/emacs in my case).   
One difference I noticed is that when running via M-x gdb some status  
is shown in the modeline, while via M-x gud does not.  I don't know a  
tremendous amount about gud/gdb.. could there be some difference in  
process-listening between the two different invocations?
