Hello,
With the 4.18 release, gdb started identifying obsolete code that was
going to be deleted. The 5.0 release saw the first of that code
removed.
I'd like to suggest a slight acceleration of the process. As soon as
(or slightly after) a release has gone out the obsolete code be removed.
This would remove the overlap that currently exists (hosts/targets may
be obsolete from the previous or next release) and also reduce the
amount of bagage GDB carries.
Since the repository is public (and downloadable) the full history is
accessable.
thoughts,
Andrew
