  GLIBC BZ#20311 [1] proc_service.h install patch also remove 'const'
attributes from ps_get_thread_area and comment #15 discuss why to remove
the const attribute (basically since it a callback with the struct
ps_prochandle owned by the client it should be able to modify it if
it the case).

On default build this is not the issue and current g++ does not trigger
any issue with this mismatch declaration.  However, on some bootstrap
build configuration where gdbserver is build with gcc instead this
triggers:

error: conflicting types for 'ps_get_thread_area'

This patch fixes it by syncing the declaration with GLIBC.

OK, but please move the ChangeLog entries to the correct ChangeLog files,
and make the entry paths be relative to the corresponding ChangeLog file.
gdbserver changes go to gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog, the rest goes
to gdb/ChangeLog.

Thanks,

Such error can be reproduced if GDB/GDBserver is configured
--disable-build-with-cxx.

The patch should go to master and gdb-7.12 branch.

Additionally, gdb-7.11 branch is the last branch we build in C in default, so
the new gcc/glibc should trigger this build failure as well.  Can we push this
patch to 7.11 branch too?  Linaro is still using 7.11 branch (we plan to switch
to 7.12 after it is released).

Fine with me.  You'll need the "gregset.h" one too, then.

We had two "gregset.h" ones recently :),

I think you mean the former.

Yes, the former.  The latter fixed a problem that was introduced
only recently in 7.12, so it's not applicable to 7.11.

I forgot about the project distinctions, I will resend a proper one with
corrected ChangeLogs entries.

I will need someone to push it for me, since I think I do not have write
access to binutils git.
