Ah, I see I missed the other interpretation of "also".  So here's a
revised suggestion:

  Be aware that system init file (@pxref{System-wide configuration})
  and init files from your home directory (@pxref{Home Directory Init File})
  still get read (as they come from generally trusted (as they come from
  generally trusted directories).  To prevent @value{GDBN} from auto-loading
  even those init files, use the @option{-nx} option (@pxref{Mode Options}),
  in addition to @code{set auto-load no}.

OK?
