Oh yes. That's right. I think I even resisted this patch, mainly because
I could not believe that Windows was really that stupid.
I have a hard time with the idea that I have to add Windows-specific code
to gdb at this point. I had an ITS (In The Shower) experience today and
realized that, of course, I could use the FindFirstFile technique to
get the right filename and your email confirms that.
This is a really hard change to make, though. It will be like typing in
molasses getting this patch into gdb. It just feels so wrong.
