This is probably nothing to do with Ben, though. While it's nothing to do with Ben, it's also nothing to do with GDB. `cvs -d ... co gdb` doesn't checkout expect/tcl/tk, for that you need to explicitly specify gdb+dejagnu. (Part of the fallout from this change will be dropping the +dejagnu from GDB).
