The only book which might come close is O'Reilly's `Programming with
GNU Software' (or something like that).
The main sources of reference for the GNU tools are the Info
documents. gcc and gdb both have sizeable Info files, as do make,
libc, and binutils.
In terms of tying everything together into a single environment,
XEmacs does a pretty good job.
If you aren't satisfied with XEmacs' gdb interface, there's DDD.
