      option introduced in crash version 4.0.9.
      - Clean up source to remove compiler warnings in Fedora
      - Fix for "pte" command on s390 and s390x machines if the pte value argument
      evaluates as not present
      - Allow command redirection to pipes or files when using gdb commands alone
      on the command line without preceding the command string with "gdb".
      -  Fix for the processing of bit fields on big endian systems in the SIAL
      extension module.
      - Fix for "dis -l" to properly display line-number information for 2.6.21
      and later x86_64 kernel module text addresses.
      - Fix to prevent querying the embedded gdb module for line numbers of kernel
      module text addresses if the module's debuginfo data has not been loaded.
      - Implemented a new "ps -G" option, which restricts the process status
      output to show only the data of the thread group leader of a thread group.

      input file.
      - Added "trace" to the extension

      2.6.22 and later CONFIG_SLAB kernels if the dumpfile has pages excluded by
      the makedumpfile facility.
      - Fix for a potential session initialization failure on x86_64 kernels if
      the dumpfile has pages excluded by the makedumpfile facility.
      - Fix for "kmem -z" option on 2.6.29 and later kernels.
      - Fix for "irq" command on 2.6.29 and later CONFIG_SPARSE_IRQ kernels.

      page.flags field.
      -  Fix for "kmem -i" option on older kernels whose unreferenced page.count
      value was -1 (instead of 0).
      - Change the cursor location when cycling through the command history when
