Re: [cdt-dev] Renaming gdb

As good as the build/run/debug objects work, there are some ideas to be
gained by spending some time in Kdevelop.  I like their build/run/debug
objects better. 

I wish the build/run/debug objects were limited to the current project
or a subset of the full project set.  I've got a ton of build/run/debug
objects defined for various projects and it would be nice not to see
them all, just the ones for the current project.
