Yes, sorry.  It was sitting in my inbox all this time.

Index entries should not use capital letters in simple words.  Our
convention is to use only lower-case text.

"gdb" or "GDB"?

A couple of minor stylistic comments:

 . For "on" and "off", you use "gdb runs", but for "auto" you say
   "automatically determine", which is inconsistent.  "gdb determines"
   in the latter case or "run" in the former case is more consistent.
   (I like the second alternative better, as it's more concise.)

 . I would lose the "automatically" part in the last sentence, since
   "auto" already says that.

Finally, what about NEWS?
