While everyone is racing to install F18, I've set up a F16 VM instead to
test this with Emacs 23.  I've ran a few manual tests, trying to exercise
the code paths, with both --annotate=3 (which is what gud on E23 wants to
use by default), and --annotate=2.  I didn't see anything go wrong.  I also
tried some background/async commands, and it didn't look like Emacs got
any more confused than with the stock gdb.

Regression testing on x86_64 Fedora 17 didn't show any regression.

I'm putting the series in now.

Thanks,
