Hi Joel,

Here are some issues,

 - some fails in test cases added by fort_dyn_array patch on some OS and
   targets.  I reported them here
   https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2016-01/msg00467.html
   and the original patch is
   https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2015-10/msg00085.html

 - PR 19491, fail in gdb.base/multi-forks.exp

 - GDB sets breakpoint on the wrong place, if the file basename is
   identical to the current file basename.  PR 19474.
   I posted a patch
   https://www.sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2015-12/msg00321.html
   but it causes a regression.

 - As a result of the previous bug, GDB crashes in gdb.base/dprintf.exp.
   I posted a patch
   https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2016-01/msg00323.html
   to avoid GDB crash.

 - A regression in trunk about arm stepping out of signal handler, patch
   is posted https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2016-01/msg00377.html
   and I'll push it in after the regression testing.

 - A fail in gdb.threads/interrupted-hand-call.exp

  $ make check RUNTESTFLAGS='--target_board=remote-gdbserver-on-localhost interrupted-hand-call.exp'

  (gdb) PASS: gdb.threads/interrupted-hand-call.exp: dummy frame popped
  continue^M
  Continuing.^M
  FAIL: gdb.threads/interrupted-hand-call.exp: continue until exit (timeout)
  Remote debugging from host 127.0.0.1^M
  ptrace(regsets_fetch_inferior_registers) PID=9710: No such process^M
  ptrace(regsets_fetch_inferior_registers) PID=9710: No such process^

  I suspect it is about a GDB PR about disappeared inferior, but I can't
  find the PR in bugzilla.  I'll look into it.

I'll update https://www.sourceware.org/gdb/wiki/GDB_7.11_Release later.
