>Description:
The attached patch fixes some issues with devel/gdb:

1) Some files are extracted with 0666 permissions which allows anyone
to modify the source while building. The fix is to add --no-same-owner 
--no-same-permissions to EXTRACT_AFTER_ARGS like bsd.port.mk does.

2) Threading support is currently broken. When you run gdb it prints an
error that says it failed to load libthread_db.so because it cannot 
resolve ps_pread. This function is defined in fbsd-threads.c and gdb
has to be linked with -Wl,-E to export it. This flag used to be added by
patch-gdb-Makefile.in, but that has been removed in the update to gdb 7.5.
I've added it back to extra-patch-gdb-Makefile.in.

3) Threading support on FreeBSD/i386 10-CURRENT is currently broken
because two configure tests that test existence of r_fs and r_gs fields
in struct reg fail. This causes gdb to overwrite %fs and %gs registers
with zero which makes threaded programs crash. The tests are missing
sys/types.h as a prerequisite header. (The test for the existence of
struct reg itself already uses sys/types.h, so I simply copied that.)
