[Bug gdb/23353] New: detect and warn about System Integrity Protection


https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=23353

            Bug ID: 23353
           Summary: detect and warn about System Integrity Protection
           Product: gdb
           Version: HEAD
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: gdb
          Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
          Reporter: tromey at sourceware dot org
  Target Milestone: ---

On recent macOS (I'm using 10.13.5), the System Integrity Protection feature
prevents the debugging of certain executables.
For example, "gdb /bin/ls" will not be able to "run".

It would be good to detect this situation and tell the user what is
happening.  Currently just a mysterious error message is printed.
