RE: [RFC]: New test scrupt gdb_buildall.sh

Hi Markus,

  this seems to be a great idea!

  I was just wondering what happens if you
run this script on a 64bit architecture.
  Are the 32bit configurations included automatically in that
case or should you add a "--32bfd" option
as a counterpart of the "--64bfd" option.

  I tested your script on ccygwin, but I had
to add a $exexext variable because
addr2line complained that it did not find
gdb/gdb file (the real executable is gdb/gdb.exe).
 
  Another (windows specific) problem is that
windows does not accept ':' as part of a filename,
but it appears in a big number of architectures.
  I modified the script to substitute ':' with '_'
to be able to check.

  I ran the modified script and got just 
two problems: mips:8000 and mips:10000
The problem comes from mips-tdep.c line 5389
bfd_get_flavor is called with info.abfd which is NULL.
