gdb-5.3 but gdb-5.2.1 and gdb-5.2 had the same symptoms

configure --prefix=/usr/local/GNU --enable-shared --enable-static
--enable-bfd-64-bit as well as a specific set of settings for
tcl-libraries, tcl-includes, tk-libraries and tk-includes

However, I also tested with a basic 

configure --prefix=/usr/local/GNU

as well to make sure that it was not the settings

I used gmake (GNU make) explicitly.
