Can you describe the problem we're expecting to solve?


The problem whereby it's impossible to have i18n support in GDB unless
there's already gettext installed on the end-user system.

Are there any current GNU systems that have this problem? Are there any current non-GNU systems have this problem?

Do the circumstances that lead to intl/ being bundled with all those other packages actually still exist?

PS: Up to and including 6.2, GDB didn't even need intl/ yet it was bundling it. It was an artifact inherited from the Cygnus tree.
