Hi,
currently ChangeLog has Emacs rule for 74 columns which is also documented at:
http://sourceware.org/gdb/wiki/ContributionChecklist
ChangeLog standard max-line-length is 74.
Plus code comments should be formatted to 72 columns (unwritten rule,
I haven't found it anywhere) and code should be formatted to 80 columns.
One has to reconfigure editor several times a minute, what about unifying
everything to 80 columns (including the comments formatting). 80 columns is
already a narrow column on the left of the screen on displays nowadays.
