Hello,

Just a quick note to confirm that the gdb-6.5 branch is now open
for patches. We also gratefully accept build reports and/or
testsuite reports.

I still have on my list:

  1. Patch the branch to disable -Werror by default
  2. Create a first pre-release probably in a few days from now.
  3. Create a second pre-release a week before target-release date.
     I suggest: Mon Jun 12.
  4. Target date for the actual release: Mon Jun 19.

Some recent change broke thread debugging on Linux/Sparc, I'll try
to figure out where this regression came from.

Actually... something is up with the test tarball.

In the test tarball from the FTP site, the file
gdb-6.4.0.20060516/gdb/sparc-linux-nat.c only contains the function
"_initialize_sparc_linux_nat ()", whereas in the gdb-6.5 branch that
file also contains the necessary supply_gregset() et al. that should
be.

Perhaps the 6.5 branch snapshot FTP url was incorrect or it contains
the wrong sources :-)

Let's see how it goes with tomorrow's sources. I think the snapshot
you tried was from the 6.4 branch, since I just updated the nightly
script that does the source packaging. I'll double-check everything
tomorrow.

I just double-checked today's tarball, and this file now contains
the supply_* functions. I think my announcement message was not
clear enough, so I will make sure to improve it for next time.
As of today, the tarball in the FTP directory contains the gdb-6.5
pre-release snapshots.
