I don't know much about this one.  Does it build if you add the library?

I believe gdb 5.0 sources had a problem compiling solib.c on FreeBSD that was
subsequently fixed.  I don't recall the details.  Maybe you could ask this
on the   gdb@sources.redhat.com   list.  I believe that if you get the latest
sources from   sources.redhat.com  this solib problem won't exist anymore
(can't swear though).
