Building GDB on mingw/gcc hosts is currently broken, due to a static
assertion failure in gdbsupport/packed.h:
In file included from ../../../../../binutils-gdb/gdb/../gdbsupport/common-defs.h:201,
from ../../../../../binutils-gdb/gdb/defs.h:28,

The issue is that mingw gcc defaults to "-mms-bitfields", which
affects how bitfields are laid out. We can however tell GCC that we
want the regular GCC layout instead using attribute gcc_struct.
Attribute gcc_struct is not implemented in "clang -target
x86_64-pc-windows-gnu", so that will need a different fix.

README for GNU development tools This directory contains various GNU compilers, assemblers, linkers, debuggers, etc., plus their support routines, definitions, and documentation. If you are receiving this as part of a GDB release, see the file gdb/README. If with a binutils release, see binutils/README; if with a libg++ release, see libg++/README, etc. That'll give you info about this package -- supported targets, how to use it, how to report bugs, etc. It is now possible to automatically configure and build a variety of tools with one command. To build all of the tools contained herein, run the ``configure'' script here, e.g.: ./configure make To install them (by default in /usr/local/bin, /usr/local/lib, etc), then do: make install (If the configure script can't determine your type of computer, give it the name as an argument, for instance ``./configure sun4''. You can use the script ``config.sub'' to test whether a name is recognized; if it is, config.sub translates it to a triplet specifying CPU, vendor, and OS.) If you have more than one compiler on your system, it is often best to explicitly set CC in the environment before running configure, and to also set CC when running make. For example (assuming sh/bash/ksh): CC=gcc ./configure make A similar example using csh: setenv CC gcc ./configure make Much of the code and documentation enclosed is copyright by the Free Software Foundation, Inc. See the file COPYING or COPYING.LIB in the various directories, for a description of the GNU General Public License terms under which you can copy the files. REPORTING BUGS: Again, see gdb/README, binutils/README, etc., for info on where and how to report problems.
