#40999: cgdb appears to invoke gdb rather than ggdb

Component: ports | Version: 2.2.1

---------------------------+--------------------------------
cgdb appears to be built to run gdb, but macports' update of gdb is
instead installed as ggdb. (I will presume that there are good reasons
for this.)
So, after installing both the gdb and cgdb ports, one can either get the
curses-based view with an ancient version of gdb (6.3), or get a console-
only view with gdb 7.6.
I think it would be better if the "cgdb" port depended upon the "gdb"
port, and invoked "ggdb" to do its work.
