You can try with --with-system-gdbinit=xxx instead.

We can probably delete these two files, if no one else finds them useful
anymore. But I don't think you really want to use GDB's system-gdbinit
as a system-gdbinit-dir; generally speaking, my understand of the
directory provided in the GDB sources is that it's a collection of
files that are not necessarily meant to always be relevant.
