Emacs calls GDB like this:

      gdb -fullname <args...>

where "<args...>" is whatever you type at "M-x gdb"'s prompt.

In other words, if you tell Emacs to invoke GDB with "gdb myprog",
Emacs invokes "gdb -fullname myprog".

See gud.el in the Emacs distribution for more details, and see the GDB
user manual for the description of the -fullname option.
