The GNU Debugger GDB was updated to the 8.0.1 release, bringing
lots of features and bugfixes.


- Link gdb against a bundled libipt (processor trace
  library) on x86_64 and i686 for improved tracing support
  on Intel CPUs.  [bsc#985550]

- Rebase to 8.0.1 release (fixing PR21886, PR22046)

- Updated libstdc++ pretty printers to gdb-libstdc++-v3-python-7.1.1-20170526.tar.bz2 .

- Add support for zSeries z14 specific features [fate#321514, bsc#1062315, fate#322272, bsc#1062318]

- Disable guile extensions for new distros, the gdb support
  is incompatible with guile 2.2.

- Rebase to gdb 8.0 release: [fate#319573]

  * support for DWARF5 (except its .debug_names)
  * support C++11 rvalue references
  * support PKU register (memory protection keys on future Intel CPUs)
  * python scripting:
    - start, stop and access running btrace
    - rvalue references in gdb.Type
  * record/replay x86_64 rdrand and rdseed
  * removed support for GCJ compiled java programs
  * user commands accept more than 10 arguments
  * "eval" expands user-defined command arguments
  * new options:
    set/show disassembler-options (on arm, ppc s390)

- Update to gdb 7.12.1

  * negative repeat count for x examines backwards
  * fortran: support structs/arrays with dynamically types fields
  * support MPX bound checking
  * support for the Rust language
  * 'catch syscall' now can catch groups of related syscalls
  * New (sub)commands:
    - skip {-file,-gfile,-function,-rfunction}: generic skip
      mechanism
    - maint {selftest,info line-table}
    - new-ui: create new user interface for GUI clients
  * (fast) tracepoints on s390x and ppc64le added to gdbserver
