It was with gnome-terminal, maximizing and minimizing its frame. No
tmux involved.

I just tried with "handle SIGWINCH stop print", and with that setup gdb
indeed takes control whenever I change the dimensions (either with tmux
or with gnome-terminal).

I don't know why I see nothing printed on the console in my previous
experiment, but it's probably just me not being able to use gdb.
