Details:

The current execution marker doesn't move when a step command is executed
through gdb.execute() application which is part of scripting gdb with python.
The current execution marker get's stuck whereas the execution in the
background still goes on. Whereas if i execute step command from gdb command
line terminal, it moves properly. Same behavior is with continue, next, stepi,
nexti, run commands. Code snippet:-
################
python
import gdb
gdb.execute("step")
end
################

This code snippet i am running on the gdb command line and the current
execution marker in the source code doesn't move.

Current execution marker doesn't move when step command is executed using
gdb.execute() api(python scripting gdb)
