Thanks!

Hi,

gdb FTBFS on GNU/Hurd due to three reasons:

- Usage of PATH_MAX in gdb/remote.c

- Recent changes in Hurd failing the build of gdb/gnu-nat.c

- A name clash of struct thread_info and the kernel function thread_info()
included in gdb/thread.c and gdb/python/py-record-btrace.c.

Include paths:
1) defs.h: #include "gdbarch.h": struct thread_info

2) defs.h: #include "nm.h":#include <mach.h>:#include <mach/mach_interface.h>
where the function thread_info() is defined:

extern kern_return_t thread_info
(
 mach_port_t target_thread,
 int flavor,
 thread_info_t thread_info_out,
 mach_msg_type_number_t *thread_info_outCnt
);

The attached patches fixes these issues:
gdb-PATH_MAX.patch
gnu-nat.c.patch
struct-thread_info.patch

Thanks :)
