Indeed, gdb doesn't support that natively, but I did follow your advice.
I make a log file of the build, after the build I took a look and in
the gdb directory it does:

I did copy this one on an arm32 machine and I does run nicely, btw,
this arm machine runs on glibc so if it wasn't statically linked it
could never run:
/lib/libc.so.6
GNU C Library (GLIBC) stable release version 2.19, by Roland McGrath et al.
Copyright (C) 2014 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

Now on this armv7 machine I run the compiled gdb:

Tried loading in some core file (generated by sending a kill 11
