I am really interested in having the few remaining DFP patches in before the branch: http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2008-01/msg00584.html http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2008-01/msg00552.html Regarding the last one, the basic idea seems to be approved, it's just some implementation issues that need to be sorted out. I'll be providing an updated patch very soon. After those two patches I can submit a NEWS entry announcing DFP support. It would also be good to have the ppc32 and ppc64 fixes to float parameter passing included. These also seem to be on the verge of getting in: http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2008-01/msg00623.html http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2008-01/msg00347.html -- []'s Thiago Jung Bauermann Software Engineer IBM Linux Technology Center
