You need a library libreadline6.dll and libtermcap-0.dll in gdb directory.

A year or so from today, I had compiled a full cross-compiler suite
targeting the Rpi architecture (compiler running on Windows, target ). This
is of course slightly different than you, but I had written down
instructions and exact commands I had run to produce it.The target is
indeed different than yours, but I think the steps might help you get it to
work correctly.
In the process, I had compiled GDB version 7.4.1 at that time. I don't know
what is your error currently, but I'm linking links to my old notes so
maybe you can sort it out.
It does not work.

Glad it helps, I'm not expert either but thought this could help you.
Just some quick notes, first no need to TARGET=arm-none-eabi if you do export TARGET=arm-none-eabi, the second one is good enough. Second, in
the GDB compilation, you did not use the environment variables defined
before, so there were in fact not needed.
For gdbserver, I never played with it. From my understanding (anyone,
correct if I'm wrong), the server does not handle any information related
to the actual architecture, this seems to be the job of the actual gdb.
So, I think it does not need to know for which target it must compiled. It
simply need to be able to execute on the system you intend to run it into.
Not sure I'm clear but I do not understand where exactly it should run
(host or guest) so hard to help you here.

Configure Error: target not supported by gdbserver.
See docs on gdbserver. If I'm not mistaken, it's supposed to run on the target architecture (where the debugged program runs) and communicate with a gdb instance running on another computer (without any requirements on its architecture).

Hi.
How can I build gdb for windows target and arm-none-eabi?
