gdb-3.4 (sun4-os4)
config.gdb has some lines:
	makedefine="-DM_CFLAGS=-Bstatic -Usparc"
This isn't right if CC is gcc in Makefile.dist as gcc uses -static.
Maybe it should just be mentioned in Makefile.dist

I can't use /bin/make, it barfs on the line
 	$(CC) -E >Makefile tmp.c $(MD) "-DM_MAKEDEFINE=$(MD)"
make: Fatal error in reader: Makefile, line 217: Badly formed macro
assignment

gnu-make seems to work.
