*** Changes since GDB 7.7
+* Guile scripting
+
+ GDB now has support for scripting using Guile. Whether this is
+ available is determined at configure time.
+ Guile version 2.0 or greater is required.
+ Guile version 2.0.9 is well tested, earlier 2.0 versions are not.
+
+* New commands (for set/show, see "New options" below)
+
+guile [code]
+gu [code]
+ Invoke CODE by passing it to the Guile interpreter.
+
+guile-repl
+gr
+ Start a Guile interactive prompt (or "repl" for "read-eval-print loop").
+
+info auto-load guile-scripts [regexp]
+ Print the list of automatically loaded Guile scripts.
+
+* The source command is now capable of sourcing Guile scripts.
+ This feature is dependent on the debugger being built with Guile support.
+
* New options
+set guile print-stack (none|message|full)
+show guile print-stack
+ Show a stack trace when an error is encountered in a Guile script.
+
+set auto-load guile-scripts (on|off)
+show auto-load guile-scripts
+ Control auto-loading of Guile script files.
+
maint ada set ignore-descriptive-types (on|off)
maint ada show ignore-descriptive-types
Control whether the debugger should ignore descriptive types in Ada
