Log:
  gdb: compile with -fcommon explicitly
  
  As described in the comment, gdb relies on some of the linker magic that
  happens with -fcommon. I suspect the life expectancy of gdb-in-base is low
  enough that this isn't worth spending much time addressing, especially given
  the vintage. Hit it with the -fcommon hammer so that it continues to just
  work.
