Isn't it possible that the sources are actually in a different
directory than the one recorded in the debug info, and if so, isn't it
true that GDB allows to work with sources in such a case by means of
the appropriate `dir' command?

In such a case, the first alternative is not the way to go, as it will
return unusable file names, and the way CLI does it is better, I
think.
