BTW, I firmly vote against any such change (even if done via
find-file-hook): gdba.el should be trying to be more robust (in the face of
unexpected or missing output from gdb), not more featureful.

Otherwise, we run the risk that we'll need to make gdb's default
"gdb --fullname" rather than "gdb --annotate=3" if too many bug-reports come
in and we can't fix them in time.
