- Subject: [RFA] nuke CONST_PTR
This patch removes CONST_PTR from the gdb source, fulfilling
PR gdb/92.

Nuke CONST_PTR
I'm not sure that gdb is ready for this patch yet. Here is some
history.
CONST_PTR was introduced in 1996:
# ChangeLog-1996
* defs.h: Define CONST_PTR as blank if compiling with Microsoft
C, else it's `const'.
In gdb 4.18 and gdb 5.0, CONST_PTR was conditionally defined as nothing
if MSC_VER was defined, and "const" otherwise. In gdb 5.1 and gdb 5.1.1,
CONST_PTR is always defined to "const". So CONST_PTR has been
unconditionally defined for only a few months.
However, in gdb 4.18, gdb 5.0, gdb 5.1, and gdb 5.1, c-lang.c has also
contained this line:
struct type **const (cplus_builtin_types[]) =
So this form has been in gdb source code for four releases already
without drawing complaint.
Testing: I built this on native i686-pc-linux-gnu and ran the test suite.
Okay to apply?

* defs.h: Kill CONST_PTR.
* c-lang.h (c_builtin_types): Change CONST_PTR to simple "const".
