AFAICT, you submitted email (below) saying that you were including the
patch but no patch was submitted.  As you know, your previous patch was
not actually a valid diff, so it couldn't be applied.

I also checked with the FSF on your assignment and the copyright clerk
says that you only have an assignment on file for "past and future
changes to the Objective C Class Library", so you'll need to extend this
assignment to include gdb.

Subject: gdb patch take 4
Date: Mon, 15 Sep 2003 09:59:35 -0500

* gdb/win32-nat.c
(handle_exception,get_child_debug_event,_initialize_inftarg) When debugging
a program that uses windows SEH gdb stops the program even if the inferior's
exception handler catches the exception.  I have added a new set option,
"set mapexceptionstosignals off" that will cause gdb to completely ignore
WIN32 exceptions. This is similar to the feature "set signal-exceptions 4"
in the Apple Openstep version of gdb 4.15.3.


This patch is relative to gdb-5.2.1-1 from mingw.org.
