I understand (from the URLs of past threads) that GDB will not come
with intl stuff, and so users of systems where there's no intl are on
their own. I don't really understand why other GNU projects can come
with intl and be built with it while GDB cannot, but if people here
are okay with leaving this unfixed, so be it.

Many of the other GNU projects are broken on systems that don't come
with intl because the intl that comes bundled with the project doesn't
build.
