Can you tell us what these changes are? Currently nightly source
packaging is broken while configuring zlib.
Here is what I am seeing:
$ cd /path/to/gdb/sources
$ ./configure --target=i386-pc-linux-gnu
$ make configure-host configure-target
[...]
checking for strerror... yes
checking for unistd.h... (cached) yes
configure: updating cache ./config.cache
configure: creating ./config.status
config.status: creating Makefile
config.status: executing default-1 commands
./config.status: line 1191: ./../../config-ml.in: No such file or directory
Makefile:10001: recipe for target 'configure-zlib' failed
make: *** [configure-zlib] Error 1
