So we got recent reports about some gcc ports failing to build for obscure reasons. The last known failure was spotted by tb@:
https://pbot.rmdir.de/Br7B606-XUwXsk9LMLLDNA The issue is the ugly ansidecl.h header shipped by devel/gdb and picked up by the compiler instead of the local copy in ${WRKSRC}/include. This ansidecl.h header is installed as a support header for other bfd headers. I guess the header installed with gdb-13.2 doesn't provide anymore the necessary compat defines used in the affected gcc copies. If we want to ship some recent libbfd support, I think we should do it from devel/binutils. But right now nothing in the ports tree uses libbfd, so the easiest way forward is to just drop bfd from devel/gdb. I have verified that lang/rust still builds with this diff. I might also add fixes to the various devel/*/gcc ports at a later point, just in case we decide to install libbfd again. ok?
