Works for me.

I think that is there so that a given module can be run standalone.
That won't work with a typical gdb-specific module, since they can't
typically even be imported when using the plain python executable.
Doug> We should provide an emacs py mode that specifies our style.
We could check a .dir-locals.el file into the tree. I'm using this
right now:
((tcl-mode . ((tcl-indent-level . 4)
(tcl-continued-indent-level . 4)))
(nil . ((bug-reference-url-format . "http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=%s";))))
