Yes, it's awkward, but that's what you need to do in the current
state of the world.
cd /usr/src/gnu/usr.bin/gdb
make clean cleandepend
env OBJFORMAT=aout make obj depend
env OBJFORMAT=aout make all install clean cleandepend
If your -current is recent enough, the new gdb will be installed into
/usr/libexec/aout. You can then run it with "gdb -aout ...". Your ELF
gdb will also still be available.
