avr-gdb 6.3 fails to build on Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard

build fails with this error message:

gcc -c -O2     -I. -I. -I./config -DLOCALEDIR="\"/opt/local/share/locale\"" -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I./../include/opcode -I./../readline/.. -I../bfd -I./../bfd -I./../include -I../intl -I./../intl  -DMI_OUT=1 -DTUI=1 -Wimplicit -Wreturn-type -Wcomment -Wtrigraphs -Wformat -Wparentheses -Wpointer-arith -Wuninitialized -Wformat-nonliteral -Wunused-label -Wunused-function  avr-tdep.c

this can be worked around by adding

#include <sys/types.h>

to inferior.h, but I am not sure this is the correct position, probably this should be fixed within the configure script somewhere.

Neither do I know whether this makes gdb work, but at least it builds

update of Portfile to latest gdb version

[mmoll@…]

Updating to gdb 6.7.1 seems to fix the problem. I also fixed a problem where info files were installed in ${prefix}/info instead of ${prefix}/share/info.
