One remaining option is to change BFD to use gnulib as well.
This is workable as long as gdb never tries to use an out-of-tree
library that uses struct stat (or a stat-derived time_t) as part of its
API. To my knowledge gdb is currently safe on this front. I'd guess it
seems likely to remain safe too, though of course one can't be certain.
