--- Comment #2 from Tom Tromey <tromey at sourceware dot org> ---
First, this is actually the documented behavior:

   GDB can also use <RET> in another way: to partition lengthy output,
in a way similar to the common utility 'more' (*note Screen Size: Screen
Size.).  Since it is easy to press one <RET> too many in this situation,
GDB disables command repetition after any command that generates this
sort of display.


That said, I think it would be fine to add a setting so that this
can be controlled.
