No, it's useful even if the program does only a small amount of I/O,
because running GDB in the default mode on GNU/Linux lets you run the
program in the non-stop mode, where GDB and the program run in
parallel -- in that case if they both output stuff to the same file
descriptor, you will get an illegible mess.
