These are options from the top configure (i.e., src/configure).  If you
look at GDB's configure (i.e., src/gdb/configure), you will see that
those options don't exit there.

OTOH, I'm not sure if those options are there because GCC used to be on
src/ as well, or because they are really needed to build some other
package on src/.
