[Second try, so this might be a duplicate...]

Gdb loses its ability to use string literals in the CLI as soon as the inferior contains a function called 'malloc' in an anonymouse namespace.

See the thread containing Message-ID: <20080805121248.GB16949@caradoc.them.org>
for more details
>How-To-Repeat:
  echo 'namespace { void malloc(int, int) {} } int main() {}' | g++ -xc++ -g - 
  gdb -batch -ex 'b main' -ex 'r' -ex 'p "xxx"' ./a.out 

yields:
  [...]
  too few arguments in function call
