I concur - with a small disclaimer on some of the entries related to
C++, where I do not follow development closely enough.

Now that we have a decent bug tracking system, I think we should, at
most, direct people there. We can keep the PROBLEMS file as a redirect.
Something like this:

---------------------------------------------

                        Known problems in GDB

All known problems in GDB are now documented and tracked through
Bugzilla at: http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/.

---------------------------------------------

But we could also get rid of the file entirely; that would be fine too,
IMO.
