* expression.h (enum exp_opcode): Use uint8_t as base type.
** The gdb.Progspace type has a new 'objfiles' method, which returns the list
of objfiles associated to that program space.
+* Configure changes
+
+--enable-ubsan
+
+ Enable or disable the undefined behavior sanitizer. Release
+ versions of GDB disable this by default if it is available, but
+ development versions enable it. Enabling this can cause a
+ performance penalty. The undefined behavior sanitizer was first
+ introduced in GCC 4.9.
+
*** Changes in GDB 8.2
* The 'set disassembler-options' command now supports specifying options
the compiler, which will fail the compilation if the compiler
outputs any warning messages.
+`--enable-ubsan'
+ Enable the GCC undefined behavior sanitizer. By default this is
+ disabled in GDB releases, but enabled when building from git.
+ The undefined behavior sanitizer checks for C++ undefined
+ behavior. It has a performance cost, so if you are looking at
+ GDB's performance, you should disable it.
+
`configure' accepts other options, for compatibility with configuring
other GNU tools recursively.

Treat compiler warnings as werrors. It adds the @code{-Werror} flag
to the compiler, which will fail the compilation if the compiler
outputs any warning messages.
