It looks like your gdb was misconfigured. The compiler is compiling
for 64-bit (-m64), while the files it is compiling indicate gdb was
configured for a 32-bit gdb.
Either something is wrong with the configure command you used, or
you have -m64 in your CC or CFLAGS left behind by mistake.
Can you fill us in with more information on those?

Hi, I didn't modify or set any Flag. I do have mingw64 installed. Using a
mingw64 window, I unzipped the latest gdb and just entered the command:
make install
in the directory gdb-7.5. I would think that the install would make the
appropriate checks and either proceed with the build or issue a diagnostic if
the install will not work for mingw64.

Oh, you have a tarball with both source, and prebuilt gdb binary? Please
confirm.
We don't provide such a thing, so you'll have to talk to whoever you get that
from.
But if I had to guess, it sounds like the timestamps in your files got messed
up, so "make" thought it needed to rebuild things. Winzip is notorious for
doing that. Try unpacking with tar/gz, if possible.

I downloaded gdb-7.5.tar.gz from http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/gdb/. There were no
binary files in this gnu zipped archive file. I always look for binaries first
but I did not see any for gdb 7.5. There were no explicit instructions on
setup so I assumed that the configure and makefile were setup for an install.
It appeared to work until tried compiling i386-windows-nat.c. I presume this
is the problem. I'm using mingw64 with its 64 bit compiler.
Perhaps the error is in the configure and makefile. I don't think it should be
trying to compile i386-windows-nat.c which may be just for 32 bit machines. My
computer runs Windows 7 and is an Intel Core Quad 2.66 GHz with 4 GB and a 64
bit OS.
The configure should recognize my system and create the appropriate makefile,
but it is not.

No, that's a source tarball, and that's all we provide. Other parties, such as
mingw.org, mingw-w64, some individuals, etc. provide pre-built binaries.

"make install" when you haven't built the sources yet is equivalent to
"make" followed by "make install". So what happens is that gdb is failing to
build for you. The install part is a red herring.
1. - So you did run configure first, right? Please don't leave out details
making us try to guess things. Paste here the full command line you used to
configure/make.
2. - It sounds like configure detects your system as i686-pc-mingw32 or similar
instead of amd64. You can check that in config.log.
3. - What's your CC environment variable.
4. - And your CFLAGS?
5. - You may need to pass "--build=amd64-mingw-w64 --host=amd64-mingw-w64
--host=amd64-mingw-w64" or similar to configure (exact target name depends on
the mingw variant you're using.

It's been 10 years without a response.
I do frequent builds on Windows, both 32- and 64-bit,
so I'm sure this is working.
