            Bug ID: 22185
           Summary: Obsolete/remove support for Solaris < 10
           Product: gdb
           Version: HEAD
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: gdb
          Assignee: ro at gcc dot gnu.org
          Reporter: ro at gcc dot gnu.org
  Target Milestone: 8.1
            Target: *-*-solaris2.[01], *-*-solaris2.[2-9]*

This is tracking bug according to
https://sourceware.org/gdb/wiki/Internals%20Obsoleting-code:

GCC has obsoleted/removed support for Solaris 9 in GCC 4.9/5 in 2013:

    https://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-4.9/changes.html
    https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2013-05/msg00728.html

While gdb 7.12.1 can still be built (only with --disable-build-with-cxx), the 
8.0 branch and trunk cannot, and it seems a waste of time to even try to make
it
work.

Therefore, support will be removed for the gdb 8.1 release.
