Re: CVS versions of gdb have same number as stable version.

It appears that the consensus is with this one. Any further comment?

MichaelC expressed concern over being able to differentiate between a
CVS gdb-20010229 and a snapshot gdb-20010229.  Yes, they can differ
significantly.

That would mean that something like:

	$ gdb
	GNU gdb 4.17

will become

	$ gdb
	GNU gdb 20010229 (cvs)
and	GNU gdb 5.0.90-20010229 (snap)

or	GNU gdb 20010229-cvs
and	GNU gdb 5.0.90-20010229

assuming no further comment, I'm going to toss a coin and then choose
the second one :-)
