It's possible. Is it time to set the version number to 0.99.90cvs and
freeze the code (no new features, bug fixes only)?

There's a few bug reports that could be closed before a release. Those
that are going to be deferred, should be added to the TODO file as
such and a comment added to the report.

I've still got a bit of work to do on avr-gdb that I need to do before
I can commit it. I also need to get it committed before they cut the
6.0 branch (tenatively set for 2003-06-21).
