Oh la la, just in the nick of time! I was just about to start when I noticed
this patch's milestone being updated.

Let's decide quickly, because it's really time to release 8.2. Looking at the
patch itself, it looks relatively safe to cherry-pick it. As far as I can tell,
it's not a direct regression (GDB 8.1 seems to have the culprit patch), and
cross-compiling GDB doesn't seem to be something that strikes me as very
common. But on the other hand, I can see someone cross-compiler from GNU/Linux
a GDB for Windows, simply because it's a lot faster to build on GNU/Linux, I've
done it many times in the past.

So, I agree the patch seems useful for gdb-8.2. If Pedro still agrees it is a
good idea, please cherry-pick and push ASAP.

Thank you!
