GDB 7.8.90 available for testing

[Joel Brobecker]

Hello,

I have just finished creating the gdb-7.8.90 pre-release.
It is available for download at the following location:

    ftp://sourceware.org/pub/gdb/snapshots/branch/gdb-7.8.90.tar.xz

A gzip'ed version is also available: gdb-7.8.90.tar.gz.

We already know of the following issues:

    PR gdb/17821 (anonymous namespace + .gdb_index issue)
    PR gdb/17681 (tab-completion needs better throttling)
    PR gdb/17525 (target-async: breakpoint commands not executed when program run from -x script)
    PR cli/17716 ([7.7 regression] Backtrace cannot be stopped by 'q' or CTRL-C)
    100x slowdown regression on DWZ files
    PR corefiles/17808 (7.9 regression: internal-error: i386_supply_gregset: Assertion `len == tdep->sizeof_gregset' failed.)
    PR cli/17828 ([7.8 regression] -batch -ex r breaks terminal)

However, these issues should be fairly minor in nature, and we felt
that we could produce our first pre-release to get users a chance
to give this early version a try.

So, please give it a test if you can and report any problems you might find.

On behalf of all the GDB contributors, thank you!
