Not sure myself whether it's too soon or not. But if we were to
switch sooner rather than later, I would say now is a pretty good
time. Or perhaps right after we release 18.2? It gives us a good
3 months of lead time before we create the next release branch,
while the delay up to now has probably helped keep the master
and gdb-8.1-branch close enough to facilitate backporting...
