PS: To give you a headache :-) Even though a native i386-ibm-aix won't
build, there is a good chance that an i386-ibm-aix host will build an
i386-ibm-aix cross debugger. This is correct behavour because a cross
debugger should be buildable on any host :-)
Yup. Except that --target=i386-ibm-aix won't give you exactly a
i386-ibm-aix cross-debuger. It will give you the same generic i386
cross-debuger as --target=i386-elf or --target=i386-whatever-junk.
Suppose i386-ibm-aix had a rather peculiar ABI that's really
incompatible with the generic i386 ABI. The resulting GDB would not
be very useful. Shouldn't we somehow warn against this?
