The main changes are the following:

- - Buffalo and Dbug12 monitor support (m68hc11-rom.c).  I've submitted the patch
  in 2000 but it was never integrated (I suspect this is my fault; I've never
  asked for its integration).

- - BDM debugging support for HC12.  This support was written by Tim Housel
  and there is no copyright assignment (hence I've never proposed for
  the patch for integration)

- - Mingw32 patchs (readline support).  I've not written that, just integrated
  and fixed a few things here and there.

For everything that I maintain (binutils, gdb, simulator) I try to integrate
in the mainline and I use the above patch to distribute a fixed gdb.  So, all
the bfd/*, sim/*, gdb/m68hc11-tdep.c are already part of gdb 6.3 and 6.4.

If the Mingw32 fixes could be integrated (but this must be done by
Mingw group, not me), I will really appreciate. In fact, this is the only
reason why I still use a gdb 6.2  (:-
