I'm not sure I have write access to gdb.

The problem is PR35457 and it happens if toplevel make is invoked with 
CFLAGS "-O2 -g", but it invokes subconfigures with "-O2 -g " (typically 
as a result of expanding "-O2 -g $(SOMETHING)").  Without the fix the 
subconfigure would exit with an error; with the fix it will see that the 
difference is limited to whitespace and go on anyway.

This bugfix is already there in Autoconf 2.62, but until we upgrade we 
have to keep it in the tree.

Paolo
