When detecting any change of the gdb patch, it tries to re-apply the new one
using "patch -N --fuzz=0" in order to update the gdb.  Please refer to
Makefile::rebuild and the head of the gdb-10.2.patch.

So I think that, to make a change to the gdb sources,

1. we have to "add" patches to the end of the gdb patch, and
2. if there are multiple patches for a gdb file, the "patch -N" doesn't work,
so we have to revert the gdb file to the original one.

(I will add this custom to crash guidelines later..)

In your patches, there are multiple patches for gdb-10.2/gdb/Makefile.in
so I would suggest that:

1. pack the 1/4, 3/4 and 4/4 patches into a patch, do the three things together.
2. add a hunk for the gdb-10.2/gdb/Makefile.in to the end of the gdb-10.2.patch.
3. add the following change to the head the gdb-10.2.patch.

(yeah, we forgot the "exit 0" here when moving to gdb-10.2..)

Thanks,
Kazu
