This should probably discuss any quoting that should or should not be
applied to the strings. That is, how are multiple arguments handled?
Is it spaces? If so then how is a space passed in an argument?
It would maybe be better if the arguments were a vector of strings, each
to be taken literally by gdb. Then gdb can apply the quoting it likes.
