When build on ubuntu 24.10 with the most recent gcc-14 and python 3.13 installed I get the following gdb compiler error due to deprecated python-API-code usage:

In file included from ../../gdb/python/py-events.h:24,
                 from ../../gdb/python/py-evts.c:21:
../../gdb/python/python-internal.h: In function ‘void gdb_PySys_SetPath(const wchar_t*)’:
../../gdb/python/python-internal.h:279:3: error: ‘PySys_SetPath’ was not declared in this scope
  279 |   PySys_SetPath (const_cast<GDB_PYSYS_SETPATH_CHAR *> (path));
      |   ^~~~~~~~~~~~~
../../gdb/python/python-internal.h:279:3: note: the macro ‘PySys_SetPath’ had not yet been defined
../../gdb/python/python-internal.h:282:9: note: it was later defined here
  282 | #define PySys_SetPath gdb_PySys_SetPath
      |         ^~~~~~~~~~~~~

This function was deprecated since 3.11 and got removed in 3.13 from the python-C-API:
https://docs.python.org/3/whatsnew/changelog.html#id136

So I guess, either the gdb patch should be updated or the gdb version should be bumped to a recent version.
