Offer an option to build the gdbserver statically. This helps in case of debugging shared library loading.

5 make[1]: *** [timezone/subdir_install] Error 2
7 is caused by glibc trying to run something it just compiled.
8 A crude workaround for this was posted at
9 http://lists.scratchbox.org/pipermail/scratchbox-users/2004-February/000018.html
10 but the following patch lets you optionally override these programs at
11 make time by setting environment variables
12 localedef_FOR_BUILD rpcgen_FOR_BUILD zic_FOR_BUILD
13 and maybe a few others to point to versions of those programs
14 that can run on the build machine.

16 for pointing out the idiom for inline $(ifdef ...) in GNU Make.
