      [ Samuel Bronson ]
      * d/sanitize-gdb.sh: Don't assume input is .tar.bz2
      * Imported Upstream version 7.8
        - GDB 7.8 brings new targets, features and improvements, including:
          * Guile scripting support. [Not enabled for Debian!]
          * Python scripting enhancements.
          * New commands:
            ** guile
            ** guile-repl
            ** info auto-load guile-scripts [REGEXP]
          * New options:
            ** maint ada set ignore-descriptive-types (on|off)
            ** maint set target-async (on|off)
            ** set|show auto-load guile-scripts (on|off)
            ** set|show auto-connect-native-target
            ** set|show guile print-stack (none|message|full)
            ** set|show mi-async (on|off)
            ** set|show print symbol-loading (off|brief|full)
            ** set|show record btrace replay-memory-access (read-only|read-write)
          * Deprecated commands:
            ** "dll-symbols" and its two aliases ("add-shared-symbol-files" and
               "assf"). Use the "sharedlibrary" command instead.
            ** "set|show remotebaud". Use "set|show serial baud" instead.
          * Remote Protocol:
            ** The qXfer:btrace:read packet supports a new annex 'delta'.
          * GDB/MI:
            ** A new option "-gdb-set mi-async" replaces "-gdb-set target-async".
          * New target configurations:
            ** PowerPC64 GNU/Linux little-endian       powerpc64le-*-linux*
          * btrace enhancements:
             ** The btrace record target now supports the 'record goto' command.
             ** The btrace record target supports limited reverse execution and
                replay.
          * ISO C99 variable length automatic arrays support.
          * It is no longer required to "set target-async on" in order to use
            background execution commands (e.g., "c&", "s&", etc.).
          * "catch syscall" now implemented on s390*-linux* targets.
          * The "compare-sections" command now works on all targets.
          * The "target native" command now connects to the native target, and
            can be used to launch native programs, even if "set
            auto-connect-native-target" is set to off.
      * debian/patches: Update for new upstream version
        - Remove patches subsumed by new upstream version/tarball:
          + ppc64le.diff
          + hurd-new-RPC-reply-stub-functions.patch
