Do a "cd src/gdb && cvs update -dP" and see for yourself. 1/2 :-)
"But seriously ..."
After an update the error I see is:
make: *** No rule to make target `../../../src/gdb/signals/signals.c',
needed by `signals.o'. Stop.
This is because signals.c has moved, but .deps/mumble still refers to
the old location.
