[RFC 0/2] Let's discuss moving gdbserver to top-level

[Tom Tromey]

I've wanted to move gdbserver to the top-level for a while now.  I
think it will provide a decent benefit, mainly by letting gdb and
gdbserver share their libiberty, gnulib, and "common" libraries --
shaving off some build time.  It also will have the nice side effect
of simplifying gdbserver's Makefile, fixing some existing bugs.

I have written the patches to do this, but before reworking them into
submittable form, I thought I'd send a couple of initial patches and
start a discussion.

This short series removes a couple of barriers to turning "common"
into a library.  These are pretty much the only changes that could be
sent in isolation.

The rest of the series is:

* Move gnulib to the top-level
* Rename "common" to "gdbsupport" in preparation for a move
* Move "gdbsupport" to top-level
* Move gdbserver to top-level
* Make gdbserver share the other top-level libraries

Most of the patches are pretty mechanical.  There are one or two
hacks, primarily because this series doesn't move the "nat" directory.

Let me know what you think.
