maverick-proposed freeze exception: gdb

 

Hi!

It came to my attention today (via the Linaro team) that gdb in maverick
lost its ptrace education patch[1] on accident when 7.2 was merged. It
would be extremely nice to get this back into Maverick, so I'd like to get
an exception for this bug[2]. Would this be possible?

Thanks,

-Kees
