Hi everyone,

Nothing much since the last update.  At the suggestion of Christian,
I created a PR and backported the following change:

    Bug 26003 - infinite loop loading symbols from separate debug objfile

As of now, there are no other issues that I have heard we want to
backport in gdb-9.2. Pending new comments, I am planning on going ahead
with the GDB 9.2 release sometime during the next weekend (May 23-24).

Cheers,

I've two patches forthcoming that unbreak the Solaris 11.4 build: as
reported in

      Bug 25981	- Use of short i386 register names breaks compilation on recent Solaris 11.4

a forthcoming Solaris 11.4 update will include a change to
<sys/regset.h> that will break the gdb build (very few other packages
are affected).  I have patches ready (one each for amd64 and i386), but
withheld them for a bit while the exact changes to <sys/regset.h> were
being fleshed out.  I expect to post them tomorrow.

It would be nice if they could be included in gdb 9.2 so we have a
release that compiles and works (master is currently badly broken since
the multi-target merge: Bug 25939).  Both patches are simple, so the
risk should be minimal.

Thanks for the suggestions. I agree these would be useful, and that
they look simple and safe. So I sent my OK to each patch.

thanks.  I've now installed both of them on master and the gdb-9 branch.
