Okay for the doco, with a single comment, see below.

I don't know enough about this to know what to remove. At the time, I
ran a script on all the .c files that found things like add_cmd and
its ilk, and made sure each such command is documented in the manual,
but I certainly didn't sweep for documented commands that we no longer
have. If someone knows about such commands and can explain what port
used them, I will approve such removal (or remove myself, if needed).

Why did you remove the index entry for gdb.ini?
