GDB 7.6 Released (2013/04/26)
   http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-announce/2013/msg00000.html
---------------------------
GDB 7.6 brings new targets, features and improvements, including:

  * New native configurations:

    ARM AArch64 GNU/Linux           aarch64*-*-linux-gnu
    FreeBSD/powerpc                 powerpc*-*-freebsd
    x86_64/Cygwin                   x86_64-*-cygwin*
    Tilera TILE-Gx GNU/Linux        tilegx*-*-linux-gnu

  * New target configurations:

    ARM AArch64                     aarch64*-*-elf
    ARM AArch64 GNU/Linux           aarch64*-*-linux
    Lynx 178 PowerPC                powerpc-*-lynx*178
    x86_64/Cygwin                   x86_64-*-cygwin*
    Tilera TILE-Gx GNU/Linux        tilegx*-*-linux

  * New configure options: -enable-libmcheck/--disable-libmcheck

  * Support for the "mini debuginfo" section, .gnu_debugdata

  * The C++ ABI now defaults to the GNU v3 ABI.  This has been the
    default for GCC since November 2000.

  * New command line option: -nh (disables auto-loading of ~/.gdbinit)

  * Various GDB/MI changes

  * Python scripting:

    ** Vectors can be created with gdb.Type.vector.
    ** Python's atexit.register now works in GDB.
    ** Types can be pretty-printed via a Python API.
    ** Python 3 is now supported (in addition to Python 2.4 or later)
    ** New class gdb.Architecture exposes GDB's internal representation
       of architecture in the Python API.
    ** New method Frame.architecture returns the gdb.Architecture object
       corresponding to the frame's architecture.
    ** New Python-based convenience functions ($_memeq, $_streq,
       $_strlen and $_regex)

  * The 'cd' command now defaults to using '~' (the home directory) if
    not given an argument.

  * New commands:
    ** catch signal
    ** maint info bfds
    ** python-interactive
    ** enable/disable type-printer

  * New remote packets (QTBuffer:size, Qbtrace:bts, Qbtrace:off and
    qXfer:btrace:read)

  * New options:
    ** set/show print type methods (on|off)
    ** set/show print type typedefs (on|off)
    ** set/show filename-display basename|relative|absolute
    ** set/show trace-buffer-size
    ** set/show remote trace-buffer-size-packet auto|on|off
    ** set/show debug aarch64
    ** set/show debug coff-pe-read
    ** set/show debug mach-o
    ** set/show debug notification

  * target record:

    The "target record" command has been renamed to "target record-full",
    and a new "target record-btrace" has been added.  This new target
    uses hardward support to record the control-flow of a process.
    Execution replay is not supported, but this targets allows investigating
    the program's recorded execution.
