"Last solitary line" is not necessarily clear (why "solitary"?).  How
about

  * The 'list' command now accepts '.' as an argument, which tells GDB
    to print source code around the default location.  The default
    location is where the inferior stopped; if the inferior didn't
    start yet, the command will print around the beginning of the
    'main' function.
