I don't remember. I know that I was paranoid that GDB may copy the
static libiberty and readline libs (possibly others) so I wrote my
script to 'cd gdb' as I knew by looking at the Makefile that it would
only copy the binaries, info files and man page. The Makefile in the
root is so large and complicated I remember not wanted trying to
decipher it.

I was probably over-reacting, but I didn't want to take a chance on
overwriting existing libs. It would be easy enough to check by doing
the following in the GDB source tree:

configure --prefix=/home/user/gdb
make
make install

Then look in /home/user/gdb and see what all was installed.
