Right.  It was reported often, and because of that there was a lot of
noise, and if you weren't following the patches going into cygwin and
gdb it would be easy to overlook as there wasn't exactly fanfare.

I expect that after 1.5.20 is out the door an updated gdb binary package
will happen, and hopefully at that point it will be a lot easier to say
"use the new version, see the release announcement" compared to "build
it yourself from CVS".

Brian
