Yes, I am going to post it separately.  The general plan is something like:

set auto-load scripts (from set auto-load-scripts), for all of *-gdb.py, *-gdb.rc and .debug_gdb_scripts
set auto-load local-gdbinit # I think system-gdbinit and home-gdbinit make no sense to configure this way
set auto-load jit
set auto-load libthread_db
set auto-load safe-path ""
info auto-load (from info auto-load-scripts)

Thanks for catching JIT, that is really another security issue.


Thanks,
Jan
