 No, it isn't, and it doesn't do it for me (even though gdb under amd64 is
even more flaky than under x86).

 I think in this case what happens is that the mouse is grabbed when the
menu is opened and so you can't switch to gdb window (I don't see this
problem because I log in remotely). Apparently using ddd can be a work
around as it is supposed to ungrab the pointer when it stops at breakpoint.
Maybe you could add a call to XUngrabPointer() to the breakpoint command.
