+/* Whether to start up the debuggee under a shell.
+
+   If startup-with-shell is set, GDB's "run" will attempt to start up
+   the debuggee under a shell.  This also happens when using GDBserver
+   under extended remote mode.
+
+   This is in order for argument-expansion to occur.  E.g.,
+
+   (gdb) run *
+
+   The "*" gets expanded by the shell into a list of files.
+
+   While this is a nice feature, it may be handy to bypass the shell
+   in some cases.  To disable this feature, do "set startup-with-shell
+   false".
+
+   The catch-exec traps expected during start-up will be one more if
+   the target is started up with a shell.  */
