I am really interested in having the few remaining DFP patches in before
the branch:
http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2008-01/msg00584.html
http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2008-01/msg00552.html
Regarding the last one, the basic idea seems to be approved, it's just
some implementation issues that need to be sorted out. I'll be providing
an updated patch very soon. After those two patches I can submit a NEWS
entry announcing DFP support.
It would also be good to have the ppc32 and ppc64 fixes to float
parameter passing included. These also seem to be on the verge of
getting in:
