I know this is largely old text, but while we're editing it: if GDB was 
attached to a running process ("gdb -p ..."), C-z sent to GDB's terminal 
will just suspend GDB.  With SIGINT set to nostop, you can't stop the 
program from GDB: you have to use its controlling terminal (C-z or C-\, 
since C-c is nostop even thence) if it has one, or else kill(1).
