Hello everybody!

Anybody who doesn't know how to apply diff files to an original should
have a look at the man page of 'patch' for details or simply type
    cd <whereever your GDB 4.13 sources are>
    patch -p1 < <whereever you put gdb-4.13.diffs>
or:
    gzip -dc <whereever you put gdb-4.13.diffs.gz> | patch -p1

    cd <whereever your XXGDB 1.08 sources are>
    patch -p1 < <whereever you put xxgdb-1.08.diffs>
or:
    gzip -dc <whereever you put xxgdb-1.08.diffs.gz> | patch -p1

To build GDB look into the GDB directories for further information.
The same is for XXGDB. For XXGDB there is a extra README.xp3gdb about
special features of this GUI for GDB.

Have fun.

PS:
When you have to get patch first, have a look for patch-2.1.tar.gz
at different GNU archives.
Below is the beginning of the man page of 'patch':

NAME
     patch - apply a diff file to an original

SYNOPSIS
     patch [options] [origfile [patchfile]] [+  [options]  [orig-
     file]]...

     but usually just

     patch <patchfile
