I'm really sorry for you your tendinitis does not go away. In the
meantime, you can give me write access to the sourceware git repository:
I'll upload my "work in progress" there and so we'll have a common
reference base. Of course, if you don't like it you can zap it after
all: in any case there will be no damage to what officially exists yet
because the git repo is currently empty.

you're headed in a direction that encompasses the "ideal" build for
insight. Perhaps I can attempt to define some sort of extension API for
gdb to cleanup the rest. [But I seriously doubt that (some) gdb
maintainers would allow this.]

I don't think there's an "ideal" solution, with regards to the project
structure. In a modern approach, we should not deal with bundles and
"third part" code should be independent libraries. We could decide to do
so with (i)tcl/tk and iwidgets and even with libgui (by having it as a
project by itself). But gdb is definitely not such an API library, and
it has itself a bundled structure. Thus what you call "ideal" is just
the less bad compromise :-/
