This isn't a gcc problem, it is an insight/source-navigator problem. 
There isn't anything a gcc maintainer can do about it except complain to 
the insight/source-navigator maintainers.

Yes, someone will eventually fix this.  Meanwhile, it isn't really a 
serious problem.  It is just a minor annoyance.  Just delete or rename 
the tix directory in your uberbaum tree and the problem goes away.  This 
assumes you have no interest in source-navigator, which is normally not 
built as part of an uberbaum tree.  This will allow insight (gdbtk) to 
build.

This is also not a gcc problem.  It is an RDA problem.  RDA doesn't seem 
to be a full fledged project yet, so we should consider it a gdb 
problem.  This can be solved in a similar way, just move the offending 
directory out of the way, and/or complain to the gdb maintainers.

I'd like to point out that the uberbaum tree, while very useful, has 
always been unofficial and mostly undocumented.  You can't expect anyone 
to be responsive to problems with it.
