Yes, it works very well otherwise.  I believe Emacs from 2006-01
worked even with the 'run' command in .gdbinit.

I guess it's more complicated than I thought; I got excited before
thinking I had solved the problem.  Maybe you could use 'gdb -n'
to inhibit .gdbinit and then load .gdbinit after the necessary
Emacs gud-mode initialization.
