       work better when exceptions are thrown
  - Improved Python support, enhancing the existing APIs as well as
    introducing new ones.
  - Improved thread debugging support:
     * GDB now understands thread names
     * A new command "thread find [REGEXP]" has been added
  - GDBserver enhancements:
     * Support for PowerPC LynxOS (versions 4.x and 5.x) and i686 LynxOS
       (version 5.x)
     * Support for Blackfin Linux
  - Support for reading and writing a new .gdb_index section,
    containing a fast index of DWARF debugging info
  - Various GDB/MI improvements
  - Support for ia64 HP-UX (ia64-*-hpux*) has been added
  - Target support for Analog Devices, Inc. Blackfin Processors (bfin-*)
  - GNU simulator improvements:

    * New GDB Commands: "set directories"
    * Support for using labels in linespecs (Eg you can use "advance label")
    * The "watch" command now accepts an optional "-location" argument
    * Thread debugging of core dumps now supported on GNU/Linux

* New upstream release, including:
  - C++ improvements including argument-dependent lookup, improved
    user-defined operator support, and static const member evaluation.
  - Expanded Python API.
  - Tracepoint improvements, including x86 gdbserver support for tracepoints
    and static tracepoints.
  - Observer mode support. You can attach to a program in observer mode
    and GDB will not allow you to modify the program's state at all.
  - x86 byte and half-word register names, and 32-bit register named
    on 64-bit targets.
  - The "eval" command for the GDB CLI.
  - "save breakpoints" to save breakpoints between sessions.
  - Improved hardware breakpoint support for PowerPC.

11. By Daniel Jacobowitz <email address hidden> on 2010-08-31
