This is a nice idea but GDB has its own filename completion. In fact GDB has
three types of completion: command, filename and location. Its just that
filename completion using the GDB command "complete", which is what Emacs uses,
was broken. This has recently been fixed by the change below (from GDB's
ChangeLog):
2004-02-01 Daniel Jacobowitz <drow@mvista.com>
* cli/cli-cmds.c: Include readline.h.
(complete_command): Pass the start of the last word to
complete_line.
This change is still in the CVS repository at sources.redhat.com but should be
part of gdb 6.1 due to be released around the end of March.
