It needs to be marked as an autoloaded command because it *is* a
command, and not just a function.

Its gud-tooltip-mode actually, Mrs Malaprop.  Someone who uses it might

Perhaps you'd also like something to be done about number-to-register for when
you accidentally type M-x nu, etc. Anyway, it doesn't matter what I think, we
