Due to a thinko, a message could be not understood and ignored. The result
was a dead-lock (gdb is waiting for an event that never happen). The port
of the thread was deallocated before new threads are discovered. As a
consequence, the origin of the message was unknown (instead of being
linked to the newly created thread).

I got the ppc476 workaround wrong. bctr (and bctrl) as the last
instruction in a page can hit the icache bug if the preceding mtctr
insn is close by, and the destination is in the first few instructions
on the next page. This scenario can occur with code generated by gcc
to implement switch statements, or in code generated to call by
function pointer.
To prevent the bctr problem it is also necessary to remove other
instructions that otherwise would be safe.

On mingw host, we have seen two fails as below,
p int1dim[0]^V@2
Invalid character '^V' in expression.
(gdb) FAIL: gdb.base/printcmds.exp: p int1dim[0]@2
p int1dim[0]^V@2^V@3
Invalid character '^V' in expression.
(gdb) FAIL: gdb.base/printcmds.exp: p int1dim[0]@2@3
In the test, the comment says "# Send \026@ instead of just @ in case
the kill character is @". Historically, kill character was @, and
Ctrl-V (\026) is to escape the next character. However, we don't have
to do so on mingw. This patch is to disable ctrl-v usage on mingw
hots. With this patch applied, it becomes:
p int1dim[0]@2
$607 = {0, 1}
(gdb) PASS: gdb.base/printcmds.exp: p int1dim[0]@2
p int1dim[0]@2@3
$608 = {{0, 1}, {2, 3}, {4, 5}}
Note that this patch is picked from Pierre's submission,
[RFC 6/6] Fix remaining failures in gdb.base/printcmds.exp for mingw hosts.

gdb.Value.dynamic_type is supposed to work for reference and pointer
values. However, the value object in the function 'valpy_get_dynamic_type'
was being dereferenced using 'value_ind' irrespective of the value type
being TYPE_CODE_PTR or TYPE_CODE_REF. This patch fixes that to use
'coerce_ref' for TYPE_CODE_REF values.
ChangeLog:
* python/py-value.c (valpy_get_dynamic_type): Use coerce_ref to
dereference TYPE_CODE_REF values.

All strip operations require section headers to be present, as do most

The linker script documentation does not mention the optional comma
that may follow an output section command or an overlay command.
In some cases, where a fill expression is used, and the next
output section command begins with an operator (e.g., "/DISCARD/"),
the comma may be required to separate the two commands.
Currently, GNU ld doesn't require the comma, but gold does.

UNRESOLVED: gdb.base/setshow.exp: show history filename (~/foobar.baz)
and this error is thrown from this test below:
gdb_test "show history filename" \
"The filename in which to record the command history is \"$HOME/foobar.baz\"..*" \
"show history filename (~/foobar.baz)"
HOME is a windows path, like C:\foo\bar. When it is used in gdb_test to match
output, the error is thrown because backslash is a special character in
regular expression. This patch is to escape backslash to fix this
error by using string_to_regexp.

Check 8 and 16 bit PCREL fixes for overflow, since we bypass the
later overflow checks in write.c. Direct relocs are left alone,
as gcc has been known to take advantage of the silent overflows
when comparing addresses to constant ranges.
