The gdb option is "--annotate=3" so this wouldn't run at all.  Gdb should
start woth only one of these options and with M-x gdb it should be
"--annotate=3" for the graphical interface.  For text mode, i.e, like
Emacs 21, use M-x gud-gdb which will give you "--fullname".

I suggest uou read the debuggers section of the Emacs manual.
