I realized that we don't support configuring as x86_64-*-darwin*. Maybe I should add it ?
Probably, but I admit I don't know enough about the details.
+ When set to a non zero value, enables debugging messages while gdb is

The last sentence above should probably be in parentheses, as that's a minor note. Also, I would rearrange slightly:
(@dfn{Mach-o} is the file format used on Darwin for object and executable files.)
+ @kindex set mach-exceptions
+ On Darwin, faults are first reported as a mach exception and then as a
+ signal. Use this command to turn on trapping of mach exceptions in
+ the inferior. This might be seldom useful to better understand the
+ cause of a fault. The default is off.
So you are basically saying that mach exceptions are native Darwin exceptions, and they are then mapped to Posix signals? At least that is what I understand from this explanation.
Also, please make sure you have 2 spaces after each period that ends a sentence.
