Or, perhaps not. I've now got a working build (running in a Win7 VM)
$ gdb --config
This GDB was configured as follows:
configure --host=mingw32 --target=mingw32
--with-auto-load-dir=$debugdir:$datadir/auto-load
--with-auto-load-safe-path=$debugdir:$datadir/auto-load
--with-expat
--with-gdb-datadir=C:/MinGW/share/gdb (relocatable)
--with-jit-reader-dir=C:/MinGW/lib/gdb (relocatable)
--without-libunwind-ia64
--without-lzma
--without-babeltrace
--without-intel-pt
--with-mpfr
--without-xxhash
--with-python=C:/Python27
--without-guile
--disable-source-highlight
--with-separate-debug-dir=C:/MinGW/lib/debug (relocatable)
--with-sysroot=C:/MinGW (relocatable)
--with-system-gdbinit=C:/MinGW/... (relocatable)
("Relocatable" means the directory can be moved with the GDB
installation tree, and GDB will still find it.)
Note that "C:/Python27" is the default installation location, as set by
Python.org's MSI installer, (just as C:/MinGW is default for a MinGW
installation delivered by mingw-get). It appears that it will remain at
C:/Python27, even if a MinGW GDB installation is relocated elsewhere;
(C:/Python27 is not identified as relocatable, by "gdb --config").
