Re: GDB for PE/Cywin target won't build on linux

Once I added the the following patch to configure.tgt everything worked.  Thanks for your help.

I will now be working on submitting the patches (for this and the re-submit from before).

[ssmith@az75-linuxbox gdb]$ diff -c -w -b -B configure.tgt.orig configure.tgt
