Based on the last several line, since I'm doing cross compiling, $gcc_no_link should be set to yes. So I'm very confused about this. Frankly, I'm not very familiar with autoconf and those scripts. I just want some simple instruction to do the build for windows. We need the python option for gdb enabled. I also noticed the 4.9.2014.11 Linaro binary, the file size of arm-none-eabi-gdb.exe is about 30M Bytes, and with xml disabled which leads to problem for using it with certain target. The previous 4.8.2014.9 release is less than 5M and it works perfect.
I downloaded from files from release.linaro.org to look at the gdb binaries. The older gdb binary has no debug info, the newer one does. That explains the 25MB difference. For linux, the debug info isn't loaded into memory and doesn't affect the run-time, but I don't know about windows. You can try stripping the binary to see if that helps.
