I tested with Debian testing's gdb "7.3-debian". A gdbinit file writable
by me was fine, a world-writable gdbinit was rejected with
warning: not using untrusted file ".gdbinit"
This seems entirely reasonable to me [1]. No need to build another gdb.
Just use a sensible umask when checking Emacs out from the repository.
When the executable is world-writable, there is no reason at all why
GDB should care whether .gdbinit is world-writable.
But we can't implement that here.
Just use a sensible umask when checking Emacs out from the repository.
I think my choice of umask is totally sensible. Where did you get
the idea it is not?
