I don't believe naming things is really my strong suit.
I tend to rush through it.

"objfile" though seems like gdb internals terminology.
Maybe something like "--enable-gdb-file-formats"?
Having "gdb" in there explicitly may make it more clear that this isn't
affecting BFD.

dbx I understand, since a.out is largely dead, but surely Mach-O is
needed by --enable-targets=all in order to target macOS?
