I tried building gdb from the FSF sources, however "configure" fails - it says: configure: error: no acceptable ld found in $PATH Configure in /cgw/Gnu/gdb-4.17/opcodes failed, exiting. Does anybody out there have a non-GUI version of gdb.exe which can be used in XEmacs GDB mode? - For help on using this list (especially unsubscribing), send a message to "gnu-win32-request@cygnus.com" with one line of text: "help".
