+* Support for remote debugging Windows and SymbianOS shared libraries
+  from Unix hosts has been improved.  Non Windows GDB builds now can
+  understand target reported file names that follow MS-DOS based file
+  system semantics, such as file names that include drive letters and
+  use the backslash character as directory separator.  This makes it
+  possible to transparently use the "set sysroot" and "set
+  solib-search-path" on Unix hosts to point as host copies of the

+  target-file-system-kind" described below, and the "Commands to
+  specify files" section in the user manual for more information.
