Great!  As mentioned in my previous post, here are some info and
Changelog patches that you may want to use.  I ran 'cvs update'
earlier today, and then produced these patches.

BTW, if any of these changes require that I sign any GNU papers, I
will be happy to do so, just inform me what I need to do to get that
accomplished.

First, an info patch that describes the new function:

*** building.texi.~1.17.~       Fri Oct 12 05:25:54 2001
--- building.texi       Mon Dec 10 23:29:29 2001
***************
*** 486,491 ****
--- 486,501 ----
  stops for some other reason).
  @end table
  
+ @item C-c C-j
+ @kindex C-c C-j @r{(GUD)}
+ @itemx C-x C-a C-j
+ @findex gud-jump
+ Only useful in a source buffer, (@code{gud-jump}) relocates the next
+ instruction to the current line at point in a source buffer (if the
+ new execution line is in a different function from the previously one,
+ you will be prompted for confirmation since the results may be
+ bizarre.  See the GDB manual entry regarding `jump' for details).
+ 
    These commands interpret a numeric argument as a repeat count, when
  that makes sense.

And here is a man/Changelog for the above info patch:

*** ChangeLog.~1.131.~  Fri Dec  7 06:57:24 2001
--- ChangeLog   Mon Dec 10 23:33:50 2001

+ 
  2001-12-07  Andreas Schwab  <address@hidden>
  
        * maintaining.texi (Emerge): Don't omit first argument of @ref.


And finally, a lisp/Changelog patch for the gud.el patch I sent
previously:
