This kind of redirection doesn't work on Windows gdb. Sorry.

If you are debugging a console application with the console version of
gdb, the output goes to the same place as the gdb output.
This may be different for the GUI version of gdb, though. However, if
you've built your own version of gdb you may not have this. It requires
linking in tcl/tk to run.
