gdb shares a repository with binutils and some other programs. gcc is in a separate repository A developer can merge the source trees for gcc and gdb+binutils+dejagnu+... and build a unified tree. This used to be necessary to build a cross-compiler in order for gcc to see the library support (glibc or newlib). I don't know if it's still necessary. So, when the same directory exists in both the gcc and gdb+binutils+... trees, the gcc tree has a primary copy, and the gdb+binutils+... tree has a secondary copy. I'm not saying that I like it that way. Michael C
