Re: complaints.c

   Does anyone see a reason why the output from "complain" goes to stdout
   rather than stderr?  complain is where gdb whinges about things like live
   range symbols not found, etc...  If it comes to stdout it often gets
   mixed into legitimate output that gdbtk is trying to parse, like stack 
   backtraces.

   I suggest the following patch:

This looks reasonable to me.  You could ask Fred Fish, since he
created the file in 1992, although even then he was moving code from
utils.c.  I suspect that you're seeing "living fossil" code left over
from the late Cretaceous, overlooked because the symbol-reading
complaints are disabled for most users.
