I don't understand: you are supposed to end the breakpoint commands by
typing just "end" at the "> " prompt.  It works for me with GDB 7.3
and Emacs 24.2.91 on GNU/Linux; if it doesn't work for you, please
tell what happens when you type "end" to end the breakpoint commands.
So what happens when sending EOF is not really relevant here, IMO.
(That command only works on GNU/Linux at the top level, not during
specification of breakpoint commands.)

See above: "end" works for me.
