Patch #1 and patch #5 did not make it to the list, because the diff
itself was too big (no big surprise).

gdb/ChangeLog

        * config/djgpp/fnchange.lst: Add entry for gdb/ChangeLog-2017.

gdb/ChangeLog:

        Update copyright year range in all GDB files

The patches are mechanical or automated updates, and are trivial
to generate now that we use git, so I don't think it's worth
re-sending. But let me know if you'd like to have them archived
here -- I can try sending a compressed diff instead.
