Yes I confirm GDB HEAD builds fine with GCC trunk, on compile
farm gcc17 (bi-quad x86_64):

guerby@gcc17:~/build-gdb$ gcc --version

It looks like GDB make -k check is not parallelized so it will take
a while more to have testresults :). 

Jakub contributed last year some Makefile smartness to parallelize make
check for GCC may be the same kinf of trick would work for GDB since I
see many subtargets in gdb/Makefile.in?
