I spoke too soon. I tried it, and it does not work:
(gdb) b Test.java:58
Breakpoint 1 at 0x80afa20: file
../mauve/gnu/testlet/java/io/ObjectInputOutput/Test.java, line 58.
(gdb) dir ~/gnu/egcs/mauve/mauve/gnu/testlet/java/text/DateFormat/
Source directories searched:
/x2/tromey/gnu/egcs/mauve/mauve/gnu/testlet/java/text/DateFormat:$cdir:$cwd
(gdb) b Test.java:58
Note: breakpoint 1 also set at pc 0x80afa20.
Breakpoint 2 at 0x80afa20: file
../mauve/gnu/testlet/java/io/ObjectInputOutput/Test.java, line 58.
I dug through the gdb source a bit. The problem is that `dir' is
(apparently) only used to find the source file for listing purposes
(source.c). It doesn't appear to be used when trying to determine
which source file a user means when he (or Emacs) types "b Test.java"
(this code is in symtab.c).
