* [gdb 7.6.1] configure --with-gmp - is it useful?

configure --help says that we can add --with-{gmp,mpfr,mpc,isl,cloog}
like we can do when building gcc.
However, I do not see anything related to gmp in the build log. Are
these options really useful to build gdb?
Regards,
Frédéric

These are options from the top configure (i.e., src/configure).  If you
look at GDB's configure (i.e., src/gdb/configure), you will see that
those options don't exit there.

OTOH, I'm not sure if those options are there because GCC used to be on
src/ as well, or because they are really needed to build some other
package on src/.

the top level files are synced with gcc.  the MAINTAINERS file describes it 
nicely.  iow, these flags are to be expected, and no, they do not impact gdb.
