This seems like it needs a NEWS entry under "Deprecated and removed 
features, and other changes affecting compatibility" if it results in a 
user-visible problem using older GDB with newer glibc (that bug report 
doesn't say what the actual user-visible symptoms are, if any).  (The new 
feature should probably have a NEWS entry under "Major new features" in 
any case.)
