* GDB now supports the vector ABI on S/390 GNU/Linux targets.
* On GNU/Linux, GDB and gdbserver are now able to access executable
and shared library files without a "set sysroot" command when
attaching to processes running in different mount namespaces from
the debugger. This makes it possible to attach to processes in
containers as simply as "gdb -p PID" or "gdbserver --attach PID".
See "New remote packets" below.
* Guile Scripting
** Memory ports can now be unbuffered.
