What has changed in GDB?
(Organized release by release)
+*** Changes in GDB 6.2.1:
+
+* MIPS `break main; run' gave an heuristic-fence-post warning
+
+When attempting to run even a simple program, a warning about
+heuristic-fence-post being hit would be reported. This problem has
+been fixed.
+
+* MIPS IRIX 'long double' crashed GDB
+
+When examining a long double variable, GDB would get a segmentation
+fault. The crash has been fixed (but GDB 6.2 cannot correctly examine
+IRIX long double values).
+
+* VAX and "next"
+
+A bug in the VAX stack code was causing problems with the "next"
+command. This problem has been fixed.
+
*** Changes in GDB 6.2:
* Fix for ``many threads''
