base system, people may want to install it from pkgsrc, particularly on
Darwin (?), Linux, SunOS and since there is no problem in having one gdb in
pkgsrc and one in the base-system, no harm is done.
Changes since the last version (4.18) are numerous; highlights include:
* New command "set trust-readonly-sections on[off]".
* New command "generate-core-file" (or "gcore").
* New command line option --pid or -p followed by a process id
* The new `--args' feature can be used to specify command-line arguments
for the inferior from gdb's command line.
* a new `operate-and-get-next' function bound to `C-o'.

Solaris, narrow down the platforms, and use specific inclusion rather
than disclusion: mark them as ONLY_FOR_PLATFORM=SunOS-*-*, rather
than NOT_FOR_PLATFORM=NetBSD-*-*.
