PARAMS removal this weekend

Earlier this week, I posted a patch for removing most occurrences of
PARAMS from the gdb sources. See:
http://sourceware.cygnus.com/ml/gdb-patches/2000-05/msg00330.html
I have seen no objections to this patch and Andrew has suggested that
I specify a date and time for when this patch goes in.
So at 5:00 pm MST of Saturday, May 27 (which is midnight GMT on Sunday),
I'll tag the repository, do the PARAMS removal on the gdb directory,
and tag it again. I will use gdb-pre-params-removal-2000-05-28 and
gdb-post-params-removal-2000-05-28 for the tags. (I'm not sure how
long it will take to do all of this, but I wouldn't be surprised if
it were a couple of hours.)
Rather than relying on the patch posted earlier this week, I'll be
using a script to do the actual PARAMS removal. The script and some
additional commentary may be found at
http://sourceware.cygnus.com/ml/gdb-patches/2000-05/msg00331.html
If you have any concerns about the PARAMS removal activity, please
let me know as soon as possible.
