 gdb-mode incorrectly responds to C-d when a python interpreter is
 running

> So, Emacs ships a GDB-mode, runnable by M-x gdb RET

> 
> In GDB that is run inside a plain terminal, the C-d command

> Not so in Emacs. If you type C-d, there is either just:

> `Use quit() or Ctrl-D (i.e. EOF) to exit'
> However, sending C-q C-d RET, or using the window menu
> `menu-bar signals eof' ends the whole GDB session.

Does the patch below fix the problem?
