I first that at first too, but then I realized that it doesn't do it. The
gdb-mi.el source has the following logic.

  (gdb-input
                                        ; Needs GDB 6.2 onwards.
   (list "-file-list-exec-source-files" 'gdb-get-source-file-list))
  (if gdb-create-source-file-list
      (gdb-input
                                        ; Needs GDB 6.0 onwards.
       (list "-file-list-exec-source-file" 'gdb-get-source-file)))

i.e. the gdb command "-file-list-exec-source-files" (note the s in files)
is called independantly from gdb-create-source-file-list which only
influences the execution of "-file-list-exec-source-file".
