Debian often patch software when packaging, to fix bugs which haven't
been fixed in an upstream release yet, or backporting important fixes
(most notably security fixes) to versions of the software in the stable
distribution.
So if you look in the debian patches for gdb 6.1, you'll probably find
a patch to fix this problem, which was either backported from 6.2 or
6.3, or has been submitted upstream and included in 6.2 or 6.3.
Cheers,
