GDB
===

   If you are debugging an application with GDB in Emacs, speedbar can
show you the current stack when the current buffer is the `*gdb*'
buffer.  Usually, it will just report that there is no stack, but when
the application is stopped, the current stack will be shown.

   You can click on any stack element and gdb will move to that stack
level.  You can then check variables local to that level at the GDB
prompt.

   This mode has the unfortunate side-effect of breaking GDB's repeat
feature when you hit `RET' since your previous command is overridden
with a stack fetching command.
