GDB bad in gcc-linaro-7.5.0-2019.12-i686-mingw32_arm-linux-gnueabihf ?

Howdy,

1st post on  this list.

I just tried the windows binaries found on the latest-7 release site, namely of: gcc-linaro-7.5.0-2019.12-i686-mingw32_arm-linux-gnueabihf

When I go into the bin folder and enter:   .\arm-linux-gnueabihf-gdb.exe --version

It outputs nothing, just returns. The version I used prior, 7.3.1, still works as supposed. Notable is that from 7.3.1 to 7.5.0, the gdb.exe size grew from ~96MB to ~128MB.

I re-downloaded the whole tar again and replaced the bin folder, no change.

I can actually *build* a C++ project with those binaries, though, and the output executable works. Only GDB seems to be affected so far.
