error cross-compiling gdbserver

[Davide Viti <zinosat at tiscali dot it>]

Hi,
while cross-compiling gdbserver I'm getting the following error:

</log>

I've verified on the commandline that the problem is in the command segments of this type
-DSELECT_ARCHITECTURES='&bfd_arm_arch' (removing those archures.c compiles fine)

since the first pass compilation of gdb with using the host gcc compiles it without errors,
I assume the problem is related to the (third party) crosscompiler; is there any way to workaround
the problem?

thanx in advance,
Davide
