[suspended patch#3 8/8] Warn (but execute) local .gdbinit by default


Hi,

it is questionable when/if this patch goes in, just keeping it around for now.
I may need to ask other projects (Emacs was mentioned) first before
deprecating .gdbinit in favor of emacs-gdb.gdb.


this patch could go in producing for 7.5:

$ ./gdb
warning: Reading file .gdbinit in current directory but it has been deprecated and the reading will be removed.  Use script associated with inferior executable
file instead.  See also 'set auto-load local-gdbinit'.  You may also use 'gdb -x .gdbinit ...'.

and in a GDB release or two releases later it gets turned into "warn-and-no":

$ ./gdb
warning: Ignoring file .gdbinit in current directory as it has been deprecated.  Use script associated with inferior executable file instead.  See also 'set
auto-load local-gdbinit'.  You may also use 'gdb -x .gdbinit ...'.


Thanks,
Jan
