GDB/MI is the so-called "machine interface". Back Then (TM), GDB was
just an interactive program: you type in things, GDB displays things
to you. With time, more-or-less graphical front ends appeared (among
them, of course, something written in Emacs). It became clear that
the interactive user interface wasn't the ideal way for a program to
control GDB, and thus MI was born.
