Ok, I can live with this, is there a list of characters that needs to be

Ok, the changes were made in cdt to use -data-list-registers-xxxx-like

Which brought forward this issue, the "--" separator, some commands

`MI-COMMAND ==>'
`[ TOKEN ] "-" OPERATION ( " " OPTION )* `[' " --" `]' ( " " PARAMETER )* NL'
Filed a PR, not sure if it is a bug.
