I think we need to be able to configure gdbserver separately. Consider
for instance the case of LynxOS: We first configure GDB with a native
compiler in order to build a cross debugger. We then configure gdbserver
separately with a cross compiler in order to cross-build gdbserver.
I suppose that you could say: configure only gdbserver, and that'd be
OK too, but I'm wondering if the extra complication would be worth it
in this case....
