I'd suppose that is a bug in GDB, or rather a missing feature. ASLR is
automatically disabled by GDB 7, but that and "set
disable-randomization on" seems to work only on Linux.
For QEMU, it could be possible to make a workaround (for example a new
flag for configure which disables ASLR). I think ASLR enabled should
be the default.
You can piggyback that onto --enable-pie/--disable-pie.
Enabling PIE by default would be a good thing in general for security,
BTW, even for softmmu targets.
