To care and support 2.6 or 2.7, we need a contributor who can run and
fix bugs on those platforms. AdaCore unfortunately cannot help since
the older version we have is 2.8, and so far, I am under the impression
that none of the usual contributors do.
We can send an email to gdb-announce if helps making the decision,
but at this point, I'm quite comfortable dropping 2.7 and older.
