Hello guys
I am doing a GDB 9.2 build using MinGW on a linux machine and found that
GDB documentation generates files frame-apply.html and Frame-Apply.html.
The difference is in filename case only.
Whilst this is fine on linux this makes a problem to unpack tarball on
windows.Yes, it is possible to workaround this by corresponding switch to
unpack utility and overwrite file. But this breaks HTML helps I guess...

I believe you are talking about building the HTML version of the GDB
manual. If so, please report this problem to the Texinfo developers
(bug-texinfo@gnu.org), since GDB just uses the Texinfo tools to
produce the docs. It's a Texinfo problem that it creates such
file-name clashes on case-insensitive filesystems.

This issue has been fixed in later versions of GDB with this commit:
commit ed788fee02b844266283a5faa66ba64c5b4739ea
Date: Mon Jul 13 12:31:05 2020 -0700
Fix frame-apply.html collision in GDB manual.
Maybe you could cherry-pick this into your 9.2 build. Or just build a
more recent version of GDB?
Thanks,
Andrew
