Thanks for the info! Sorry for my ignorance, but I cannot seem to
figure out how to get the CVS HEAD of the GDB/MI documentation. Could
you please point me to it? I tried downloading a few things from the
GDB web-site, but couldn't figure out the latest version...

Also, if

http://sourceware.org/gdb/onlinedocs/gdb_25.html#SEC413

is the latest version, it doesn't seem to make any special mention of
-var-create with respect to going out of scope...

Regards,
Srinath

PS: Sorry Volodya for the extra email. I forgot to email the group last time.
