[mpich-discuss] ctrl-c while running mpiexec -gdb

When I run a regular program under gdb, ctrl-c returns control to the  
gdb prompt and I can examine the stack of the interrupted process or  
issue any other gdb command on the current process. When running  
mpiexec -gdb, ctrl-c returns to the shell (thus abandoning the gdb  
session).
