Can we move GDB to testing?

[Daniel Jacobowitz <dan@debian.org>]

Testing has gdb 6.1-3.  Unstable now has 6.3-5 for all architectures.  This
is a new upstream release (two - I never packaged 6.2), but includes a
number of important fixes, including:

  - Remote debugging of NPTL.
  - Support for debugging UML.
  - Support for the GCC -feliminate-dwarf2-dups option, which we don't
    use by default yet but I'd like to for the next release.
  - Limited support for Ada.

There have been almost no new bugs reported (just one MIPS problem, which
may have existed previously - not sure if it affected 6.1).  So I would like
to move this into sarge.  OK?
