And I think that gdb+binutils (that is, the files and directories you get by checking out that module) should be split into its own repository - keep those two together, leave other projects to transition or not in their own time and their own way. (The toplevel configure already supports --disable- generically, so with a combined source tree you can already use --disable-gdb --disable-sim --disable-readline to build binutils only, or --disable-binutils --disable-gas --disable-gprof --disable-ld --disable-gold to build GDB only - though simpler aliases might be useful.) -- Joseph S.
