Unfortunatelly it not the same library. Building gdb/libgdb.a is rather
recent invention (from gdb-5.0). To build RHIDE library with same
name were used earlier. Perhaps it would be nice to convert RHIDE
to use v2gnu/gdb500a.zip instead, but I don't know when this
will be done (maybe somebody want's to try ...)
