Your patch looks really useful. I am so struggling with the reserver-search in gdb.
Is there any possibility to add this functionality in some other way, which does not include compiling manually gdb? I just want to use the version of gdb in the package manager.
Ideally there would be a patched version of gdb in the AUR, but I can see how that might require additional work.

Unfortunately there's no way to pull this off without patching GDB. The readline module in GDB is too limited. Would be happy to explain further if you'd like.

In regard to setting up an AUR package for this, I don't have any experience with that so I'd have to wait until I have time to research/understand it, or if someone else does it.
