The crashinfo man page now references the gdb port/package, and
crashinfo itself emits a message that the port/package should be
installed if kgdb is not found.

GDB's proposed retirement has now been added to

I expect to make GDB default to NO next week, and then remove it from
the tree a week or two later, if there is no compelling objection.
