It isn't same; for example if I want to say: "list f_MyFunction"
and if there is (==beginning of "f_MyFunction") some objects
which have inline constructors I get list of those constructor(s)
NOT list of "f_MyFunction" as I expected/wanted. Besides,
I have to check what is the line number from source code by editor
because gdb can't show that line to me.

Same goes with "next"; if I set breakpoint: "b f_MyFunction"
I don't get what I want, because I end up to inside of those
f*king inline constructor(s) again when breakpoint is reached!

All this works with gdb-5.0, so gdb-5.1.x behaves
differently here...

I tried, but it didn't help...
