Also see the thread: http://sources.redhat.com/ml/gdb/2002-07/msg00202.html but unless your architecture is really wierd, nothing should be needed. As for your architecture the main things are: - getting it to strictly use the multi-arch framework (the exception being if your platform has shared libraries) - getting it to comply to gnu (and GDB) coding standards - FSF paperwork Otherwize it should drop in. Take a look at one of the very recent targets (xstormy16?).
