I'm in favor of at least removing the configure script. For
the Makefiles (would we keep the master one in gdb/testsuite/?,
I'd say yes, at least as a first step), it's a tougher one. I think
it depends on what the consequences in terms of funtionality would
be. I don't mind losing "make clean" capability in the testsuite
area, but that might be problems for those who build in-tree
(sacrilege! :-).
