Hi everyone,
As far as I know, we only have the following items on our list, both
unconfirmed for the moment:
* [Tom] PR gdb/23838
8.2 regression for invalid -data-directory
https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=23838
Tom fixed it in master, and set the milestone to 8.3; the patch
looks safe to me, so I asked Tom to confirm it was ok to backport.
If yes, I will do it.
* [Keith] gdb/23712
dw2_add_symbol_to_list language assertion
https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=23712
Marked this one as targetting 8.2.1 as per our discussion on this list
(https://www.sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2018-11/msg00096.html),
but there is a chance IMO that this one might not make it.
The current plan is to see the patch get in master first, and
evaluate fromt here whether it is safe enough vs the risk taken.
* [*UNASSIGNED*] *NEEDS PR*
SYMBOL_LANGUAGE assertion failure on AIX
| commit b971899198607b844f5a37e39dc561766c3b331a
| Author: Sangamesh Mallayya <sangamesh.swamy@in.ibm.com>

| Subject: Fix SYMBOL_LANGUAGE assertion failure on AIX.
Identified as an interesting patch, as it fixes a crash.
OK with me, if someone creates a PR number. Ask Sangamesh Mallayya
whether he wants to create the PR and backport the patch?
Anything else we might have missed?
Thank you,
