*** Changes since GDB 6.6
+* When looking up multiply-defined global symbols, GDB will now prefer the
+symbol definition in the current shared library if it was built using the
+-Bsymbolic linker option.
+
* When the Text User Interface (TUI) is not configured, GDB will now
recognize the -tui command-line option and print a message that the TUI
is not supported.
