Hi,
I long time ago I asked the GDB mailing list how to determine if GDB is ready
for another command when using MI. Pedro Alves wrote:
GDB is ready for input when it prints the MI prompt. There's one
prompt that is already printed after ^running that you should ignore.
That's an historical wart.
I recently started to update cgdb to drop annotations and use the new-ui
command line option. I noticed that i'm no longer seeing that historical
wart.
Has this been "fixed" in gdb? If so, is there a way to determine which
versions of gdb have the historical wart, and which ones do not?
Thanks,
Bob Rossi

For the record, my testing shows that this issue does not occur when
using the 'new-ui mi' command line flag.
