I wish it weren't and issue, but it is. Well, at least, it is for Emacs
users like me -- Emacs sends file:line breakpoint commands, and IME gdb
regularly picks the "wrong" file when there is a basename clash. (It
might also be an issue for other-front-end users, but I don't know.)
A long time ago I tried to fix this problem, but I don't remember what
happened. As I recall, I needed changes to both gdb and Emacs.
