Probably.  Your fix to call gap_reset_workspace is the right thing to do
and is quite harmless.    I'm not sure what else to say, except that
there is one gap workspace for each SAGE install that you have stored
in .sage/gap/.  It is hard to have gap_console() somehow know
that there was a problem running GAP, unfortunately.
