I believe the Todo: list should have been fixed in 7.6.1, at least these list
regressions of 7.6 against previous FSF GDB releases:

http://sourceware.org/gdb/wiki/GDB_7.6_Release

  [pedro/tom] Fix CTRL-C 7.6 regression
    - Fixed but not pushed to 7.6:
      http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=15603

  [dje] Fix gdbserver socket leak 7.5 regression
    - Simple but not yet done by anyone, a bit annoying in practice:
      http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=15604

  [jan] Fix argv[0] symlink regression 
    - Not investigated yet, to be done these days:
      http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=15415

I have no idea about these items:

  [dje] The mi fullname change is causing issues for Eclipse users that may not have been anticipated.

  [keiths/dje] Revert http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2013-03/msg00251.html for msymbol_hash_iw [or use strspn?]. Doug to test on his mega-application.
