We must update gdb.texinfo to reflect this change.  It currently
documents only -i=mi.

Why can't this strncmp be done in one place and then saved in some
variable?  If you do need to use strncmp all over the place, then I
can't say I care to see the magical constants "mi" and 2 every time
you do ;-)

What would it take to do that now?
