This looks good.  Initially, it wasn't obvious to me how you could use GUD
with TRAMP.  Are you going to document this kind of use in the Tramp
manual?  Then I could link to it from the GUD node in the Emacs manual.

This isn't exactly what I meant.  I don't really want the hostname displaying
in all buffers including those for the local machine.  I was just thinking of
something like the character 'R', possibly with a different face/background
colour, for remote buffers similar to the single character flags at the start
of the mode-line.
