I dug harder and found this: static void mi_command_loop (int mi_version) { /* Turn off 8 bit strings in quoted output. Any character with the high bit set is printed using C's octal format. */ sevenbit_strings = 1; So, you can reproduce this situation from the CLI by "set print sevenbit-strings on" before invoking the MI command. It is an oddity that currently an MI consumer must check gdb's host charset in order to know how to decode its output. I would recommend that the client force it to be UTF-8, but I think this currently may not work with PHONY_ICONV. Tom
