>> I spotted one problem.  Changing the description of gdb.prompt_hook from a defop to a defun made the xref{prompt_hook} not work.  Either that or  it was broken already.  I made it xref{gdb.prompt_hook} but that produces an error when I click on that cross-reference.  What's the texinfo magic to  define what xref points to?

I changed both -- that way the cross-reference appears as "Note: gdb.promp_hook" or "See gdb.prompt_hook".
