I agree that if GDB accepts commands in upper case, the ambiguous command message should work accordingly. The message as it is, with an empty list, doesn't make sense. I also noticed that tab completion was case sensitive, should that be fixed as well? For example, (gdb) inf shows "inferior info", but (gdb) INF shows nothing. Should it show "inferior info", or "INFERIOR INFO"?
