All src.rpms we push out to ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/rawhide/
SRPMS/SRPMS/ contain our newest mainframe support, so maybe the following
packages contain what you are looking for:
- binutils-2.13.90.0.18-6
- glibc-2.3.1-46
- gcc-3.2.2-1
- gdb-5.3post-0.20021129.12

For gdb specifically you could also take the source rpm from Red Hat
Linux 8.0 x86, as that has been based on gdb-5.2.1 and did compile for me
at the time we released RHL8.
