The status in the wiki page linked from that url is accurate.

GDB nowadays builds and links in C++ when configured
with --enable-build-with-cxx, though that still spews a ton of warnings.
There's been constant incremental progress so we'll get there eventually.

No release has been marked as the one where we'll switch to C++ as
default language -- it'll get done when it's done; though the sooner
the better.  :-)

Thanks,
