I do the occasional C++ debugging, and use gud-gdb in Emacs for that. I'm comfortable with Emacs, but I'm still a beginner when it comes to gdb.

Would there be a good reason for me to switch to cgdb?

I don't think there is a reason. GUD is very powerful and integrates well within Emacs. cgdb rather seems to be designed for vi users who don't want a debug interface in their editor.

I agree with this, gud is at least as good as cgdb.
