I tried to compile GDB with
--enable-targets=all for x86_64-w64-mingw32
target.
As 'long' type is 4-byte while pointer type is 8-byte,
this target is quite sensitive to so 'dirty' code
lying around like casting 'long' or 'unsigned long' to pointers...
I had to fix several sources to be able to
successfully compile GDB with those configuration options.
1) Replace remaining #include <winsock.h> by #inlcude <winsock2.h>
in remote-m32r-sdi.c and m32r-rom.c
2) Add intermediate typecast to uintptr_t to avoid
compilation warnings.
in alpha-mdebug-tdep.c
3) Change some types from 'long' to 'CORE_ADDRESS',
if they could carry pointers.
in coffread.c
4) Use host_address_to_string to display host pointers.
in hppa-tdep.c, monitor.c and xtensa-tdep.c
5) solib-som.c is a tdep file (it is listed in ALL_TARGET_OBS)
but it tries to get the hpux system version trough
a direct system call, which probably leads to wrong results
on other systems too.
