Re: [RFC] gdb.base/args.exp: Invoke gdb_load for simulator targets


I'm testing gdb against a simulator and I'm seeing the following in
the gdb.log output:

    (gdb) run
    Starting program: .../gdb/testsuite/gdb.base/args 1 3
    Don't know how to run.  Try "help target".
    (gdb) FAIL: gdb.base/args.exp: correct args printed

My first inclination was to simply skip this test for simulator
targets, but I decided that there's no reason not to run it.  I've
added a bit of code to invoke gdb_load for simulator targets and
wrapped it up in a proc so that it'll be easier to augment as other
targets are identified which can use a similar mechanism.

Comments?  (This is reasonably obvious, so I'll check this in a day or
so if there are no objections.)

* gdb.base/args.exp: Invoke gdb_load for simulator targets. Modify regexps to match extra output after program exit in a
simulator.

What's the extra output? That part may be a bug.
