It appears that the gdb break and list commands don't know about the search
path.  If I compile a file junk/test.c and try to set a breakpoint at
test.c:3, gdb does not find the file.  If I set a breakpoint with a procedure
name it will find the right file though.  When using the syntax of
b test.c:3, shouldn't gdb search the path to find the filename ?
