Both GDB and BINUTILS are regenerated using auto ``000227'' which can be 
found in:
	ftp://sources.redhat.com/~ftp/pub/binutils/
there are also automake, gettext and libtool.  How applicable the latter 
ones are to GDB I don't know.
(this confusion is normal :-)

Re-generating both configure.in and configure had the attached effect.

No the <sys/stat.h> et.al. checks.

I'll re-generate both and check the result in.
