STINNER Victor <victor.stin...@haypocalc.com> added the comment:
The commit creating methods "function", "select" were added the 24th february
2010, whereas gdb 7.1 was released around the 18th february 2010.

I guess that the author (Dave Malcolm?) of the is_evalframeex() method in
Tools/gdb/libpython.py uses the HEAD version of GDB.
About the select() method, Dave added the following comment to its Frame
wrapper:
---
def select(self):
'''If supported, select this frame and return True; return False if
unsupported
Not all builds have a gdb.Frame.select method; seems to be present on
Fedora 12
onwards, but absent on Ubuntu buildbot'''
---
gdb in Fedora 12 is based on 7.0.1 plus a lot of patches. But I don't see a
patch added the select() method to the Python API:
