it is not only nemiver. Eclipse CDT and Kdevelop4 behave the same.
It seems that all those graphical debuggers expect gdb to provide maps
as a list (iterable) of key-value tuples. Actually, this is quite reasonable,
too.

Example [("key1", val1), ("key2", val2)]

On the other hand, gdb print on pretty printed maps expects lists (iterables)
such as:
[("", "key1"), ("", val1), ("", "key2"), ("", val2)]

which is definitive less intuitive...
