I had deleted the build test directory, so I repeated the operation. Got a failure again but a completely different one:

I then asked specifically for probe.o ("cd gdb && make probe.o"):

This file contains any messages produced by compilers while
running configure, to aid debugging if configure makes a mistake.
It was created by configure, which was
generated by GNU Autoconf 2.64. Invocation command line was
$ /Users/pkoning/Downloads/gdb-8.1/configure --prefix=/usr/local/trunk --disable-build-warnings
OS is Mac OS 10.13.4.
These appear to be LLVM incompatibilities; if I feed those command lines to (real) GCC 8.0, just built yesterday from current trunk, they compile cleanly.
