BTW working now on 7.8 regression wrt ignored "q" abort for "bt" more-prompt
so that one always has to backtrace all the hundreds of frames
OTOH without backported all the acceleration fixes and even the still pending
[patchv2] Fix 100x slowdown regression on DWZ files
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2014-10/msg00031.html
one would not wait 5 minutes for a backtrace anyway so not sure if 7.8*
releases incl. FSF GDB HEAD make sense.</grin>
