Not for me. Executables are all over the place and I always have to make
sure I switch to the correct directory first. Gud frequently guesses
wrong, probably because we have a very complicated parallel build.
Also, I frequently have to switch between debugging locally and remotely
on the target platform through gdbserver.

Well, let's take Eclipse. It automatically scans the tree for binaries
which you can quickly select for debugging. You can define different
debug configurations where you can define the debugger to use, how it
should be called and with which init file, if and where it should stop
execution on startup, which executable it should debug and what
arguments and environment it should provide, and if maybe this
executable should be copied to a target system and debugged through
gdbserver...
And that's just what *I* regularly use.
