	`*** Changes in GDB 7.1 for the 32-bit OpenRISC 1000`

	`* OpenRISC Remote JTAG Protocol dropped`

	`As planned, support for the proprietary OpenRISC Remote JTAG Protocol has`
	`been dropped. This protocol was introduced in GDB 5.0 in 1999, but the use`
	`of proprietary protocols has since been superceded by use of the standard`
	`GDB Remote Serial Protocol. The OpenRISC architectural simulator, Verilator`
	`RTL and all modern FGPA implementations all support the GDB Remote Serial`
	`Protocol.`

	`* Simulator Target`

	`"target sim" now works, using the OpenRISC architectural simulator, Or1ksim,`
	`which has been integrated within GDB. This has greatly extended the scope of`
	`regression testing.`

	`* Consistent Naming of Source Files`

	`For consistency with the rest of the OpenRISC toolchain, all source files`
	`now use "or32" in their name, rather than "or1k". In particular this means`
	`the custom documentation is now found in doc/or32.texinfo.`
