Comment:

 Similarly, these fail too:

 {{{
 ./configure --build=i386-apple-darwin --host=i386-apple-darwin
 --target=i386-apple-darwin
 .
 [snipped]
 .
 configure: error: "*** Gdb does not support native target i386-apple-
 darwin"

 ./configure --build=i386-bsd --host=i386-bsd --target=i386-bsd
 .
 [snipped]
 .
 configure: error: "*** Gdb does not support native target i386-pc-bsd"
 }}}


 According to {{{bfd/config.bfd}}}, one of the supported targets is:

 {{{
   i[3-7]86-*-darwin* | i[3-7]86-*-macos10* | i[3-7]86-*-rhapsody*)
     targ_defvec=mach_o_le_vec
     targ_selvecs="mach_o_le_vec mach_o_be_vec mach_o_fat_vec pef_vec
 pef_xlib_vec sym_vec"
     targ_archs="bfd_i386_arch bfd_powerpc_arch bfd_rs6000_arch"
     ;;
 }}}


 That concludes the examination of the problem to date.  The current state
 of development (testing) for the port may be seen in this Portfile:

 https://svn.macosforge.org/repository/macports/users/dweber/devel/gdb/Portfile

 The MacPorts trunk Portfile will be disabled at the fetch stage, with a
 ui_msg about this ticket.
