I dug the commands I used long ago to build gdb for the arm port, and I just
rebuilt it as well as for ppc (which even in OSX can be useful since their ppc
gdb only reads Mach-O binaries), it still seems to work.
It can be useful to debug bootloader or kernel stuff, along with qemu -s
So in case you need those...
wget http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/gdb/gdb-6.8.tar.gz
tar zxvf gdb-6.8.tar.gz
cd generated-arm-gcc4/
mkdir gdb-build
cd gdb-build
P=$PWD/cross-tools
../../gdb-6.8/configure --target=arm-elf -enable-interwork --enable-multilib
--prefix=$P
make
make install # no need to sudo here as it goes to cross-tools/...
cd ..
rm -Rf gdb-build
# Note: it seems at least on OSX that configure needs a --disable-werror
# You might also need to use CFLAGS='-g -O2 -m32' LDFLAGS=-m32
../../gdb-6.8/configure ...
# The -enable-interwork was needed IIRC for ARM, just drop it for other arch.
Use:
../../gdb-6.8/configure --target=powerpc-elf --enable-multilib --prefix=$P
