Just the same, gdb 4.18 has a number of bug fixes and other improvements.
Unless you plan to create a permanent fork, life will be easier if you
manage to create patches off of 4.18 (including some of your 4.17.0.x
features not included in 4.18); this will, I think, make it easier for the
gdb team to eventually include your changes.
I notice that you didn't include the gdb maintainance address on your
announcement. Was that an accident?
