* The "catch syscall" command now works on s390*-linux* targets.
+* All native targets are now consistently called "native".
+ Consequently, the "target child", "target GNU", "target djgpp",
+ "target procfs" (Solaris/Irix/OSF/AIX) and "target darwin-child"
+ commands have been replaced with "target native". The QNX/NTO port
+ leaves the "procfs" in place and adds a "native" target for
+ consistency. The impact on users should be minimal as these
+ commands previously either throwed an error, or were no-ops. The
+ target's name is visible in the output of the following commands:
+ "help target", "info target", "info files", "maint print
+ target-stack".
