Hi. I proposed deprecating gdb's dbx mode for gdb 12, and then removing
it in gdb 13:

Pedro suggested I mention that here.
My view is that dbx mode was always pretty superficial -- it just adds
some aliases and doesn't really try to emulate dbx -- and probably
largely unused. It's never been well-documented.
