What I am implying is that gdb concatentates the paths specified by 
"directory" with the path to the source file contained in the object 
file as described in Debugging with GDB section 7.4, Specifying source 
directories.

My runtime object files contains paths like /home/gene/source and I have 
set directory in gdb to /cygdrive/d. I am running gdb on cygwin and the 
target files are on a linux box. From windows (cygwin) I can see my 
linux files at /cygdrive/d/home/gene/source but gdb (insight) does not 
display the source. I compiled with -g and am not stripping debug info. 
With other directory and $cdir setting I can see source in insight but 
not wiht this particular setup.

(Maybe I dont' completely know the meaining of $cdir?)
