Perhaps the docstring should say:

Make point value in window be at position pos in window's buffer unless...

Initially there is one frame displaying two windows: one display the GUD
buffer and the other displaying the source where execution has stopped.
Neither window is dedicated

GUD->GDB-Frames->Disassembly is selected from the menu-bar (with either
window selected).

The disassembly buffer appears in its own frame as a dedicated window with
frame focus and Emacs makes this window selected.  The cursor is at the
start of the buffer and Edebug shows that set-window-point doesn't move it.

The easiest way to see this is by following the steps in the original report
i.e run any simple program under GDB in Emacs, break at main and look at
the disassembly.
