Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: samba-common

The directory /etc/samba contains a spurious file gdbcommands which does
not appear to be documented.  To the extent that I am able to guess what
it's for, it should probably simply be removed, or else documented e.g.
in the /usr/share/doc/samba-common/README.Debian.gz file (which does not
currently exist).

http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=299919 hints that it
may have been useful at some point, but I don't see any reference to it
in /usr/share/samba/smb.conf or /etc/samba/smb.conf any longer (if there
ever was one).
