Why should we print ^running before we are ready for more input?

*running, yes, soon as the target starts running.  But ^running is the
result of the command and should show up when the command is done,
shouldn't it?

In other words, the current version:

`OUTPUT ==>'
     `( OUT-OF-BAND-RECORD )* [ RESULT-RECORD ] "(gdb)" NL'

`RESULT-RECORD ==>'
     ` [ TOKEN ] "^" RESULT-CLASS ( "," RESULT )* NL'

Changed to this:

`OUTPUT ==>'
     `OUT-OF-BAND-RECORD | RESULT-RECORD'

`RESULT-RECORD ==>'
     ` [ TOKEN ] "^" RESULT-CLASS ( "," RESULT )* NL "(gdb)" NL'
