I noticed now that I did poor job at that...  Missed half of the entries.  I pushed this obvious fix.

Subject: [PATCH] NEWS: Move 'New targets / Windows/MSVC' entries

Commit 3a6f38f30d ("gdb: Distinguish GNU and MSVC flavors of the
Windows OS ABI") correctly put the main NEWS entry in the "Changes
since GDB 18" section, but incorrectly left the "New targets" entry in
the "Changes in GDB 18" section.  Fix by moving to the correct place.
