No. It is unlikely that your problem has something to do with
what's dicussed in this thread. Anyway, you might want to read
this bugreport:

  http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?11984

If you want your problem to be investigated you might enter
it into the savannah bug database or start a new thread on
this list. Do not forget to include a detailed report on
the problem that you see, your environment, etc.

I myself use gdb alot under MC and have never noticed the
behaviour that you describe so far.
