Can't build gdb for mingw32 if not native? :-(

Hi,

I'm trying to build gdb 6.3 on host powerpc-apple-darwin8.2.0 for target i386-pc-mingw32msvc.

Unfortunately nothing much gets built. Probably because of the bit of the configure script I found that starts with the comment:

# Can't build gdb for mingw32 if not native.

I'm trying to get a GNU toolset hosted on OS X and targetting Windows (MinGW). So far, the compiler toolset is working dandy, and having gdb would top it off just right.

But it looks like I've hit a stumbling block. Does anyone know the reason for this limitation?

Thanks for any insight.

Steve.
