I have Python 3.7.0 on my machine and I configured gdb compilation with:

../../../src/gdb-8.0/configure --prefix=/home/$USER/compilo/bin \
--target=mipsel-unknown-elf --program-prefix=mipsel-unknown-elf-

Hi Yvan,

This has been fixed semi-recently, I believe it should work with GDB 8.2 (and
if not, it will work with git master). There won't be any other releases of
the GDB 8.0.x, so I will close this as wontfix. Please open another bug if
your encounter build failures with 8.2 or master.

Simon
