cloog/ppl/mpc and gdb?

[Jack Howarth]

   Can someone clarify the reason for the
--with-cloog, --with-ppl and --with-mpc
configure options in the gdb 7.1 release?
Do they really do anything and does gdb 7.1
actually build against those libs? I set those
in my build on x86_64-apple-darwin10 under
fink and none of the executables appear to
end up linked to those libs. Thanks in advance
for any information.

It's the first time I hear about these (but often miss messages).
We configure GDB on Darwin as usual...

Joel,
    A correction. Because fink always passes -I/sw/include and
-I/sw/lib, gdb 7.1 configure does find cloog when built while
the fink cloog package is installed. However, I am trying to
find out if this is all just noise from configure (in that
nothing in a stock build of gdb seems to end up linked against
cloog). I am trying to pinpoint the true library dependencies
of FSF gdb 7.1 so I can miminize the required packages for
the build.

  Yeah, it's just noise, binutils has them too.  I'm pretty sure they're only
in top-level configure because gcc needs them, but that means they're there
for everything because top-level configure is shared everywhere.  They'll just
be irrelevant anywhere you don't find references to them in the lower-level
configure/Makefiles.
