For the kfail's, please use more specific patterns than just
".*$gdb_prompt $".  kfail's should be for known bugs, which means
there should be known-bad output.  If the output doesn't match a
specific known-bad output, then it means that gdb has regressed
even more, and the KFAIL turns into a FAIL (this does happen).

The failure results in the test stopping somewhere in an internal function. I think this changed in the different times it was broken, and it might also change in between releases of the OS. So the actual output might not be that useful for a KFAIL.
