I have a question before sending the new version.
I noticed that the GDB build step currently doesn't depend on xsltproc.
It is used only in gdb/features/Makefile to generate some .dat files,
that are also included in the repository at gdb/regformat. Am I right?
At first, I intended to use xsltproc as a build step and only provide
the *.xml.in files in the repository. But that would have the side
effect of forcing xsltproc to be available at build time, and I don't
know if is acceptable.
Other possibility would be to also push the generated files to the
repository. We'd keep them in gdb/syscalls/generated/, or something
like that, and have a script to update the xmls when needed.
What do you think is the best approach here?
