Bug ID: 23516
Summary: gdb build error under msys+mingw: strip can't handle
gdb-add-index.exe
Product: gdb
Version: HEAD
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: build
Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
Reporter: asmwarrior at gmail dot com
Target Milestone: ---

I have reported this bug here:
https://www.sourceware.org/ml/gdb/2018-07/msg00038.html

gdb-add-index is a bash script file, but it has the .exe extension, so that
when when I run

make install INSTALL_PROGRAM='install -s' -C gdb
DESTDIR=/d/code/build_gdb/bin2017

command, it will run the strip command on this file, and it report errors.
Here is the log:
