I looked at this a little today.

It needed some further tweaks, as it is also applying patches to the
code, in some cases breaking it.  At least, that is the case when I ran
it myself -- I don't see the specific problem I noticed in your list,
which is odd since I just used your script...

Anyway once I did that I realized I didn't really trust the output, and
I didn't really want to do a detailed review the whole patch by hand.
It's rather large and boring.  You can't rely on the compiler because
not every file is compiled on every host...

So I think I'm going to drop it.  If you want to make a patch for gdb,
though, ... :)

BFD and CPU changes should go to binutils.
config-ml.in is canonically maintained in gcc, then sync'd.
readline fixes should go upstream.
