If you build with GNU Highligh support (used to highlight the sources),
then you need to use the shared libstdc++. So, if you need GDB to use
the static version of the libgcc/libstdc++, you'll need to configure
GDB explicitly, via:

    --with-static-standard-libraries
    --disable-source-highlight
