Insight is largely in maintenance mode. I still use it daily, and I will
continue to do whatever I need to do to keep it working.

I build on Fedora 15, 17, Ubuntu 12.10, and Windows/MinGW fairly
regularly. Fedora 17 comes with GCC 4.7.2, and I have no problems
building for x86_64.

First things first. What is your configure triple? Can you configure and
build gdb without Insight? What version of insight are you trying to build?
FWIW, I use CVS HEAD. I've never used a release, and I haven't made one
in years. Now that things are starting to settle down around me, I am
hoping to commit a few important patches for x86_64 and MinGW and make a
new release. 6.8 is (obviously) ancient.
I've never tried Arch linux, but I'll try installing it into a VM...
