Please post the shortest source, and instructions for compiling it,
that could be used to reproduce this problem.

I have never seen such problems, and AFAIK, they shouldn't happen, at
least not on DOS, because when GDB asks for FileNameHere.c, DOS
transparently truncates this long name to FILENAME.C and makes GDB
happy.

Can it be that you run on Windows 9X, not in plain DOS?
