Thanks. This confirms my suspicion: we don't recognize the situation
where GDB waits for a response, and interpret your "y" response as a
GDB command. So we send it as a command: that's what the
"-interpreter-exec console" thing is about. So GDB waits for "y" or
"n", but gets "-interpreter-exec console \"y\"".
We need to teach gdb-mi.el to recognize these prompts. Will look into
that.

Yes, anything other than "ask" (which is the default).
This will serve as a workaround until the solution is found and
installed.
