*** Changes since GDB-4.18:
-* Remote targets can connect to a sub-program
+* New features
-A popen(3) style serial-device has been added. This device starts a
-sub-process (such as a stand-alone simulator) and then communicates
-with that. The sub-program to run is specified using the syntax
-``|<program> <args>'' vis:
+On SVR4 native platforms (such as Solaris), if you attach to a process
+without first loading a symbol file, GDB will now attempt to locate and
+load symbols from the running process's executable file.

* MIPS 64 remote protocol
The command ``set remote-mips64-transfers-32bit-regs on'' has been
added to provide backward compatibility with older versions of GDB.
+* ``set remotebinarydownload'' replaced by ``set remote X-packet''
+
+The command ``set remotebinarydownload'' command has been replaced by
+``set remote X-packet''. Other commands in ``set remote'' family
+include ``set remote P-packet''.
+
+* Breakpoint commands accept ranges.
+
+The breakpoint commands ``enable'', ``disable'', and ``delete'' now
+accept a range of breakpoints, e.g. ``5-7''. The tracepoint command
+``tracepoint passcount'' also accepts a range of tracepoints.
