-symbol-info-symbol
^error,msg="Undefined mi command: symbol-info-symbol (missing implementation)"
(gdb) 

This is one of many GDB/MI commands that are described in the manual but not
implemented, presumably because no-one has found a need for them.  Such
commands have:

  Example
  .......

  N.A.

after them in the manual.

For Emacs, I think that it is not necessary to give symbol information in
the memory contents buffer but just the addresses and values.  The user
should be able to specify a symbol as input, however, and the -data-read-memory
command allows that.
