I added this to make it clear to users that gdb is style-enabled now.
I guess I don't care much about this particular instance though. Maybe
removing it is the answer.

I'm curious to hear what others think. In the absence of comments I'll
remove it sometime before 9.1, I think. Or I'll approve a patch to do so.

thanks,
