Details:

I'm using gdb's new python scripting API, there seems to be some interworking
issues with DDD and gdb's python commands, as the commands may take up to
minute to complete under ddd. With plain gdb the same commands complete in
less than second. Strangely enough, the same commands operate without delays
in ddd if I'm analyzing core dumps, so the problem actualizes only with live
process debug sessions. Issuing any other than python commands with live
process works without any delays, so at least to me this seems to relate only
to python commands (both own CLI commands written with python, or running
single python commands on gdb command line.
