The following package has been updated in the Cygwin distribution:

* gdb-8.3.1-1

The GNU debugger allows you to debug programs written in C, C++, and 
other languages, by executing them in a controlled fashion and printing 
their data.

This is an update to a later upstream version:

https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-announce/2019/msg00002.html

See the /usr/share/doc/gdb/NEWS file for a list of user-visible changes.

In addition, it contains the following patches carried forward from the 
previous Cygwin package:

* Teach the demangler to deal with '@'-decorated __stdcall functions
* Various fixes for Cygwin signal handling
* (experimental) Teach gdb how to unwind frames for the Cygwin signal 
delivery wrapper functions _sigbe and sigdelayed
* Warn rather than stopping with an error if realpath() for a DLL fails 
(Tim Chick)
   Addresses: https://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2014-08/msg00401.html
* Fix a memory leak which would occur in the case when the result of 
realpath() is greater than or equal to SO_NAME_MAX_PATH_SIZE (Corinna 
Vinschen)

and the following new patches:

* Enable output styling by default on Cygwin

also note the following packaging changes:

* The python interpreter used for gdb python extensions is now python3.
