yes, and probably these lines too:

  cygwin*)
    if test -d $srcdir/libtermcap; then
      LIBS="../libtermcap/libtermcap.a $LIBS"
      ac_cv_search_tgetent="../libtermcap/libtermcap.a"
    fi ;;


reason: this block is never executed, because
$srcdir/libtermcap points to binutils-gdb/gdb/libtermcap
but it inclues ../libtermcap/libtermcap.a, which assumes
binutils-gdb/libtermcap. However if libtermcap was
there, it is built after gdb, so this would fail anyway.



Thanks
Bernd.

Hi Joel,
Glad to hear that this patch is still needed.
I believe, all questions with FSF copyright assignments had been resolved?
Please, let me know what I should do to complete this contribution.

Thank you

WBR,
Yury
