Which bring me to the next question. Should GDB be added to the book?

I don't install it using configure-make-make install. I use the
following:

configure
make
make check-gdb
cd gdb
make install

Notice the 'cd gdb' before 'make install'. This is how my build script
is laid out, and though my memory is fuzzy about this, I 'cd gdb' so
that the readline, libiberty, etc. libraries aren't installed along
with the gdb executable.

Or am I wrong about this and it is nothing more than CMMI?
