The "load" is needed because it loads the symbols, but it also has the impact of loading the code.

I would expect you can just use:

symbol-file <filename>

to load the symbols (and thus make the variables sensible).

My mistake here was that I was stopping the GDB server and client before going into the field. Turns out if you simply leave them running on the host and physically disconnect the target from the Segger, when you reconnect it the GDB client and server pick up the session again.
