+If you use GDB, it's recommended to use the .gdbinit file in the src/
+subdirectory, which configures GDB not to stop in this situation.
+Starting GDB from the src directory will cause it automatically load and

+alternatively, you can force GDB to read that file manually, after
+starting the debugger:
