Package: gdb
Version: 6.3-6
Severity: wishlist

It would be handy if you could run gdb with the command to be 
debugged including its options

now you must split the command and the arguments and use 'r'

I would like something like

gdb <GDBOPTIONS> -- command <COMMANDOPTIONS>

so you could
# SomeCommand -a -b -c 
-> has bug -> press key UP to use history and add gdb -- before 
   command
# gdb -- SomeCommand -a -b -c
