Thanks.

However, the fix is incomplete AFAICT: the "pseudo-toolbar" which
gdb-mi.el should show on TTY frames was lost.  Please compare the
display in "M-x gdb" in a TTY session between emacs-29 and master: the
former shows a kind of "text-mode tool bar" on the menu-bar line when
you are in the GUD buffer, and also if you are in a source buffer when
a gdb-mi session is active.  These "pseudo-toolbar" buttons are useful
if you have a mouse on a TTY terminal: you can click on these
"buttons" , and they work like the real tool bar on GUI frames.  On
master, these buttons no longer appear.  Can we have them back,
please?  (I guess more than just the menu should be shared between
gud-mode-map and gud-minor-mode-map?)
