So your gdb is broken, your stty is doign stuff nobody else seems to be
seeing ? My first thought is to suspect the distro/source as I've still
had no other equivalent reports and given the gdb spew.

I'll have a dig further however as the GDB spew itself might actually be
a useful clue. Not sure I can do much without a proper trace however (if
gdb is borked on your box is strace giving sane reports ?)
