I've created a wiki page for known issues that need to be fixed before then: http://sourceware.org/gdb/wiki/GDB_7.5_Release When you add an issue, please make sure you add a name so we know who is coordinating the effort. If you don't know who can work on it, please just post the issue here, and we'll try to find some help. I only know of one issue, which is a noticeable performance degradation that was reported a while ago: http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=14002 There is a workaround, so could possibly considered NOT blocking for the release. Tom, I put you as the main lead on this one, with ???, as one of your commits was identified as the one after which the slow- down is noticed. It's a first guess; we can re-assign, including to myself, if you'd like. -- Joel
