  I think that those scripts
are used to generate sources in the build directory, no?

The usage of gdb_ari.sh is much more limited,
normal users, who just want to compile
a released GDB source, probably have no interest in that tool...

  Thus a discrete sub-directory would seem more natural
to me.

  Note that the current ARI page
lists several scripts:
Scripts: gdb_ari.sh gdb_copyright.sh gdb_find.sh gdb_indent.sh
gdb_makefile.sh gdb_orphan.sh

but I doubt the others are really up to date and used.
