I cannot reproduce this: I see GDB announcing SIGWINCH when Emacs runs
under tmux and the screen dimensions are changed.  I don't know what
you meant by "maximized then unmaximized the screen", but what I did
was to press 'C-b "' to split the screen in half, and then 'C-b !' to
join the halves into a single screen; both times GDB announced
SIGWINCH.
