Upgrading to gdb 5.1.1 *is* something that I am doing. In fact, I was 
testing kernel debugging over the weekend. However, the calls to 
bfd_read are still in gdb 5.1.1 so I could either patch it or wait 
for gdb 5.2 to be released. Of course, a simple patch to bfd.h could 
remove the warning as well...

If the warning is annoying people, I can make the patch to gdb. If it 
is tolerable, then let's wait for gdb 5.2.
