emacs + gdb + curses = trouble?

Specifically, suppose we are debugging a program which uses curses,
and doing the debugging by invoking gdb (M-x gdb) from within emacs.
Suppose we give gdb a command like `tty /dev/ttyxx', indicating that
the user input/output for the program being debugged will be in
another place separate from the gdb commands (e.g. under X windows,
that I/O will be in another window).  The xx is derived from typing
`who am i' in that other place.

In this setting, curses seems not to work.  I've tried it on three
different machines.  It works fine if I do the same thing but invoke
gdb from the shell instead of from emacs.

Any suggestions?
