[Buildroot] [PATCH] gdb: bump to 7.3.1

[Buildroot] [PATCH] gdb: bump to 7.3.1

[Yegor Yefremov]

On my old build system (openSUSE 10.3) I had problems compiling GDB saying something like my glibc is too old. So I tried the latest version and could compile without a problem. See the patch below.

Yegor,

Can you send a patch with a proper description, so that it can be
applied with git am ?

By proper description I mean :

 * Don't forget that everything before the --- is kept in the commit
   log, so don't put "personal" explanations.

 * Don't put a line full of "-------------------------".

Thanks!

Thomas

 Actually, you can put "personal" explanations after the ---.  So the 
following would work:

 I typically use that for the changelog of single patches.

Thanks for comments. I'll rework the patch next week. By the way
shouldn't we get rid of 6.8 due to this issue:
http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gdb.devel/30648. That was the
reason for trying 7.x version.

Yes, probably. It seems we'll need to keep 6.6 around for bfin though.

I've sent a proper patch using git (there is still plenty to learn about). 

Have you looked at http://www.gnu.org/s/gdb/ 7.3 release notes?

" ia64 HP-UX (native) and Blackfin (target) support
  GDBserver support for PowerPC LynxOS, i686 LynxOS, and Blackfin Linux "

Can some one with blackfin test this? If it is working, we could remove the dependence on !blfn.

Best regards,
Yegor

Thanks, committed. I dumped the minor version so it's 7.3 similar to how
we're doing it for the kernel headers or busybox.

Yes, I noticed as well. Bfin users, please speak up.

I guess Mike is best placed to answer here. Otherwise, I'll bring up a
Blackfin board I have and I'll test this.
