+
+ Refactor Python "gdb" module into a proper Python package, by
+ introducing a new "_gdb" module for code implemented in C, and
+ using reload/__import__ instead of exec.
+ * python/lib/gdb/__init__.py: Import * from _gdb.
+ (GdbOutputFile, sys.stdout, GdbOutputErrorFile, sys.stderr,
+ prompt_hook, sys.argv): Moved from finish_python_initialization.
+ (pretty_printers, PYTHONDIR): Moved from _initialize_python.
+ (packages, auto_load_packages): New list and function replacing
+ module_dict and auto-loading code, using __file__ instead of
+ gdb.PYTHONDIR and reload/__import__ instead of exec.
+ (GdbSetPythonDirectory): Replacing function of the same name
+ from finish_python_initialization, using reload/__import__ instead
+ of exec, as well as call auto_load_packages.
+ * python/py-prettyprint.c (find_pretty_printer_from_gdb): Check
+ gdb_python_module and not gdb_module.
+ * python/python-internal.h (gdb_python_module): Declare.
+ * python/python.c (gdb_python_module): New global.
+ (before_prompt_hook): Check gdb_python_module and not gdb_module.
+ (_initialize_python): Rename gdb module to _gdb.
+ Move gdb.PYTHONDIR and gdb.pretty_printer to lib/gdb/__init__.py.
+ (finish_python_initialization): Move Python code to
+ lib/gdb/__init__.py; instead, set up sys.path and import gdb into
+ __main__.
