This part is okay.

Please always use lower-case letters inside @var.  In Info format,
they are capitalized by makeinfo, but in other formats we get slanted
typeface which is much more pretty than upper-case.

Please use @samp for the indicators, not @code.  These are not words,
so they will look strange without quotes in formats other than Info
(where makeinfo quotes them).

The gdb.texinfo part is okay with these nits fixed.
