perl setuid scripts don't work in 2.1-current for the same reason they were
not working in 1.1.5.1.
Perl 5 has the same "problem" of course.

Don't print "last exception: " before the FPU opcode and pc, etc. The
opcode and pc, etc., are for the last FPU _instruction_.
Pass the saved exception status word to print_387_status() so that the

Remove unused null function clear_regs().
cvs is not being used effectively for gdb. Our old changes get clobbered
and our new changes are mixed with "vendor" changes in the same updates
so they will be difficult to untangle for the next release of gdb. The
revision logs get spammed for each release of gdb.
the wild, slippery orgy commence!
Gary Jennejohn, too studly for his own good, has finally come through with

o Well, it's newer. Our previous version was 4.11.
Comments and flames to gj, of course! :-)
