Supress Eclipse command "gdb-set auto-solib-add"

I have a remote connection to a target running a nios2 processor with uClinux distribution over TCP/IP under the control of Eclipse-CDT. nios2-linux-uclibc-gdb debugger doesn't support set auto-solib-add command. So when I start the application Eclipse (among other commands) sends: gdb-set auto-solib-add on command to the debugger and it responds with an error,msg="no symbol \"auto\" in current context." That causes launch to fail.  

I tryed to reset "Load shared library automatically" flag under run->debug configurations...->c/c++ remote application->debugger->shared libraries. But it sends the same command with gdb-set auto-solib-add off and runs into the same error. 

 

The same question were posted Stackoverflow.com (-> http://stackoverflow.com/questions/13646357/eclipse-cdt-how-to-suppress-some-gdb-commands (http://stackoverflow.com/questions/13646357/eclipse-cdt-how-to-suppress-some-gdb-commands)) and it suggests that it comes from the final launch sequence of Eclipse, so the command sequence cannot be supressed easily. The post on stackflow doesn't help me. Any idea how to influence Eclipse.

It seems that nios2-linux-uclibc-gdb is based on GNU gdb version 6.1 which doesn't support the auto-solib-add option. How can I compile a new version of nios2-linux-uclibc-gdb based on GNU gdb 7.x ?  

 

Any suggestion would be very much appreciated? Many thanks.
