You could do M-x gdb-enable-debug, then 

(gdb) b b add_<TAB>

in the Gud buffer.

Then inspect gdb-debug-log (C-h v) to see if "complete b add_" gets sent to Gdb.

I suspect it does and this relates to Apple Gdb and the previous problem with ^M
characters.

You could also download and compile FSF Gdb on Mac (I can't remember if you
already have) and try that.
