Policy for one, i.e. the tools to use are version controlled locally. Much work for another. Many older distros will never upgrade Gdb. To compile it on many machines is a big job (I don't mind doing it for Emacs since I test and develop Emacs). IMHO this 7.0 requirement will make gdb-mode useless for the majority of users. Do we even know if 7.0 is released before 23.2 is? The strength of gdb-mode in the past is that you just did M-x gdb and it worked with whatever Gdb version you had. Jan D.
