What has changed since GDB-3.5?
(Organized release by release)
-GDB now works on the DEC Alpha. GCC 2.4.5 does not produce usable
-debug info, but GDB works fairly well with the DEC compiler and should
-work with a future GCC release. See the README file for a few
-Alpha-specific notes.
+*** Changes in GDB-4.11:

+* Remote Debugging
The "set remotedebug" option is now consistent between the mips remote
target, remote targets using the gdb-specific protocol, UDI (AMD's

debugging info for the mips target).

+
+This release has been hosted on LynxOS 2.2, and also can be configured
