I was talking about both.

Weekly snapshots
   gdb-6.8.50.20080408: build completes successfully
   gdb-6.8.50.20080415: build breaks
   gdb-6.8.50.20080421: build breaks

gdb-cvs updated only today (checked out at the beginning of April)
   build breaks

gdb-cvs just checked out (after your message)
   build completes successfully

So the issue seems to be resolved. In fact the gnulib directory was  
missing in my CVS working copy as well as in two of the snapshots at  
the ftp server of sourceware.org.

I will use co in the future for keeping my CVS working directory up to  
date.
