i don't know why automake is able to find some of the ../config/ m4 files
just fine, but a few others it barfs on.  i don't see the warning because
i have gettext installed and automake finds the system iconv.m4.

restoring the explicit include in the gdb file should fix it.

Subject: [PATCH] gdb/gdbserver: switch to AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIRS

These dirs don't use automake, so use AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIRS to specify
../config as a search dir for m4 macros.  This allows removal of a lot
of hand-written m4_include's from acinclude.m4 files, and simplifies
use of `aclocal` or `autoreconf` as manual -I is not needed.
