Reviewing the entire email thread, I think it's a totally different
issue. I am referring to:

(gdb) b simple<TAB>
/[...]/cleanups.c:264: internal-error: restore_my_cleanups: Assertion `*pmy_
+chain == SENTINEL_CLEANUP' failed.
A problem internal to GDB has been detected,
further debugging may prove unreliable.
Quit this debugging session? (y or n)

First guess is that this is happening inside ada-lang. And
indeed, when forcing the language to C, no problemo...

That's the long way of saying disregard my first paragraph above :-).
