Nick,

We had a conversation about this back in February, AFAIR, and your
conclusion was that you'd like to remove those E* constants from the
sources, and thus avoid the problem altogether.

Did you have time to make those changes since then?

GDB is about to branch for the imminent GDB 10.1 release, and
currently the problems I described back then are still with us.  So
we'd like a solution soon, and need to decide whether to go with the
same workaround we used for GDB 9.1 or use a better change from you.

Thanks in advance.
