Even if it's not imminent, it's likely that when it will happen many
people will still be using older GDB releases.  So it'd be good to keep
the gdb-ui.el code for Emacs-23.2 (and include the new gdb-mi.el as
well).

BTW, as you probably already know, I really think that M-x gdb should Do
the Right Thing, whether gdb is run with --annotate=2, --annotate=3,
or -i=mi.  I.e. it should wait to see GDB's output and then decide based
on that output whether to use gdb-mi.el or gdb-ui.el or just gud.el.

> Is installing Gdb 7.0 not an option once it has been released?

I don't understand this question.
