Thank you, Rainer.

I removed that option from all the Makefiles and ran "gmake check", 
which reported as follows.

[...]
============================================================================
Testsuite summary for package-unused version-unused

# TOTAL: 32

It then switched to dejagnu and stopped at the following:

Running 
/home/build/opt/gdb/bld-15.1/gdb/testsuite/../../../gdb-15.1/gdb/testsuite/gdb.arch/ftrace-insn-reloc.exp 
...
ERROR: (eof) GDB never initialized.
ERROR: breakpoints not deleted

I am stopping here -- gdb as built works.
