Great.

I think we may still have problems with "run" and GUI apps
(IMAGE_SUBSYSTEM_WINDOWS_GUI subsystem) that don't have a console
at all.  I haven't tried this in a while, but I think a console
ctrl-c event won't make it to the inferior, and GDB doesn't know to
resort automatically to some other means, like DebugBreakProcess.  Attaching
or setting "set new-console on" should help in this case.
I'd be happy to be proven wrong, though.  :-)
