I think it has less to do with girlfriend vs. friends than with basic politeness - it's rude to bail at the last minute regardless of the excuse, and if you do anything about it I'd talk to the friends about it without bringing up the gf - bound to cause trouble if you do. Just tell them that it's really inconvenient for you when they bail like that at the last minute, and you'd appreciate more notice. All else fails, find new friends who understand that your time and company are valuable, too.
That said, keep in mind that significant others usually trump friends because of the sex card - who'd you rather piss off? Your buddy or the person who's gonna blow you if you keep her happy?
