[PATCH v2 0/8] Remove stabs support from GDB

[Guinevere Larsen <guinevere@redhat.com>]

Now that GDB 17 has branched, I think we're ready to remov stabs from
GDB entirely, and the sooner this is merged, the earlier we'll spot any
problems and the more time will be there to fix them.

This series does just that.

Guinevere Larsen (8):
  gdb: move some stabs functions to gdb/buildsym-legacy.h
  gdb/mdebug: Remove stabs support from mips inferiors
  gdb: Remove stabs support from ELF files
  gdb: Remove stabs support from dbx
  gdb: Remove stabs support for COFF files
  gdb: Remove stabs support from XCOFF inferiors
  gdb: Fully remove stabs code from GDB
  gdb: remove support for dbx from GDB
