Hello,

Today was the day we targetted for creating the GDB 7.8 branch.
But we still have 2 issues identified as blocking before we can do so:

- Performance issue induced by PR gdb/16253. Not sure if a decision
on how to deal with this regression was reached. Keith and Doug?

- infrun regression on platforms using software single step (Eg AIX).
See PR gdb/17000. A patch was sent this past weekend, and is
awaiting review.

We're going to follow those two AIs day by day until we can branch...
