I don't have any objections, but the question is: would GCC and GDB
maintainers have objections?  Should we perhaps ask them before
assuming this for the rest of the changes?

How about having a template in the CVS and a script that is run when
the distro is tarred?  That script could then edit the template into
the suitable form for each of the distributions, and use "gdb" for the
GDB distribution, "gcc" for the GCC one.
