Strange, it _is_ relocatable in my build of GDB 9.1:

  This GDB was configured as follows:
     configure --host=i686-pc-mingw32 --target=i686-pc-mingw32
	       --with-auto-load-dir=$debugdir;$datadir/../auto-load
	       --with-auto-load-safe-path=$debugdir;$datadir/../auto-load
	       --with-expat
	       --with-gdb-datadir=d:/usr/share/gdb/9.1 (relocatable)
	       --with-jit-reader-dir=d:/usr/lib/gdb (relocatable)
	       --without-libunwind-ia64
	       --with-lzma
	       --without-babeltrace
	       --without-intel-pt
	       --with-mpfr
	       --with-xxhash
	       --with-python=d:/usr/Python26 (relocatable)
	       --with-guile
	       --enable-source-highlight
	       --with-separate-debug-dir=d:/usr/lib/debug (relocatable)
	       --with-system-gdbinit=d:/usr/etc/gdbinit (relocatable)
