Thanks!

Feels like you grabbed this patch from upstream or submitted it there, would you have a link to that maybe?  Would greatly ease the administration here.

@toolchain: could we get that patch in the patchset for gdb-7.7?

if it's in upstream, it should be easy to integrate

[Comment 6 Fabian Groffen 2014-04-12 05:43:25 UTC]

The ML message mentions "committed on trunk", so I assume it's in upstream, though not necessarily on the 7.7 branch.

i'm fine with that.  although it should be easy to ask for also merging to the branch :).

i've included the patch in the 7.7.1 ebuild
