There were more than one attempt:
  - there was note in readme in gdb416s.zip to patch one of the files in 
    src/debug. Tried but got the result described above. There is also 
    the patched version inside sources of RHIDE: also there were no 
    results
  - I tried to use libc.a from alpha djlsr202 (rebuilt it from sources, 
    which was not very easy with gcc-2.8.0, I didn't have 2.8.1 at that 
    time) but still got the same. 

In RHIDE I found that after Ctrl-C the program I'm being debugged no more
exist. The main idea for building gdb-4.16 from sources was to use it
(libgdb.a) in RHIDE. Unfortunatelly I didn't succeed to get expected 
reaction to SIGINT.
