Are you familiar with dryad?
The author is working on a library that can be used to communicate
with gdb.  He is also writing a CORBA interface to gdb.

I think it would make sense for these parts to be separate from the
actual GUI.  That way if you don't like his GUI for some reason you
can implement your own -- but without reinventing the useful
GUI-independent pieces.

dryad is in the Gnome CVS repository.
