What is 'GDB' in the commands above?  Is it an alias to the gdb binary 
in your build folder?  If you're using your locally-built gdb binary
from the build folder and not the install folder, please try passing
the data-directory flag.  Otherwise, a data-directory in a more default
location takes precedence.

  $ /<path-to-build-folder>/gdb/gdb -q --data-directory=/<path-to-build-folder>/gdb/data-directory

You can run the "show data-directory" command to check if it is pointing
to the right folder.
