gdb 5.0

["Tiziano Tosi" <ttosi at generalmusic dot com>]

Hi, all

my platform is:

RH9 (kernel 2.4.20-8), glibc-2.3.2-27.9 (updated)
When i build gdb 5.0 (gdb-5.0.tar.bz2), occured the following error:

[root@rh9 gdb-5.0] ./configure --target = arm-elf
.................

[root@rh9 gdb-5.0] make

I don' t understand what kind of error it can be (i' m new to uClinux
developing)
Is it library problem?  Patching something ?
Can somebody give me some suggest ?
(if i try to build newest gdb distribuitions i see anothers kind of errors)

Thanks in advance.
