[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.
