Actually, now that I understand this bug, I can say that gdb_6_1-branch
has no regressions versus gdb 6.1, right now. That makes me happy.
Randolph, what would you think of shipping 6.1.1 without any hp fixes?
Or with just my memset fix?
I've been thinking about those two possibilities. Right now there are
regressions in 21 different test scripts from gdb 6.1 to gdb HEAD. Some
of these are fake, and some of them will be fixed by my memset fix.
But there are still some real bugs in there, notably watchpoints.
I would prefer to fix all the regressions in HEAD; and by the time we do
that, 6.1.1 will be out the door, and it will be time to branch 6.2
(branch for 6.2 is scheduled for July, with release in August).
You've done most of the work so I defer to your judgement, though.
