Hi

Recently we had a discussion in gnu.gcc.help about the user interface
of gdb when it doesn't find a file because the user has moved it somewhere
else in the hard disk.

Current behavior:
-----------------
GDB stops with the message "No such file or directory".

Proposed behavior:
-------------------
Change the message to:
"GDB can't find "xxxx.c". Please use the "directory" command to setup 
the directory search path."

This will tell the user what to do to fix the problem, without having to 
go to gnu.gcc.help to get
the same advice.

Jacob
