If you search the bug data base for high GDB PR's you'll see:

PR Category State Priority Responsible Synopsis
378 gdb suspended high unassigned ``GNU/Linux'' ``Linux kernel''
394 gdb suspended high unassigned GDB 5.1.1 contains intl/ droppings
527 gdb suspended high unassigned GDB 5.2 incompatibilities with GNU
textutils 2.0.21 in POSIX mode
676 gdb analyzed high unassigned Alpha OSF1, gcc, internal GDB error in
mdebugread
708 gdb open high unassigned Can't build 5.3 branch (and probably trunk).
725 gdb open high unassigned Crash using debug target and regcaches (in
5.3 branch?)
763 gdb open high unassigned gdb 5.2 removes the conditional breakpoints
840 gdb suspended high unassigned Expect on GDB 5.3 branch doesn't build
on IRIX 6.5

It is these (actually the non-suspended ones) that I'm trying to get
flushed.

Of most concern are 708 and 676. They both indicate something failing the:

./configure
make
./gdb/gdb ./gdb/gdb
(gdb) b main
(gdb) run

release criteria :-(
