[RFA] fix win32-nat failure
I ran a testsuite on cygwin with the patch below,
I got this results:
=== gdb Summary ===
# of expected passes 11190
# of unexpected failures 469
# of expected failures 58
# of unknown successes 2
# of known failures 110
# of unresolved testcases 40
# of untested testcases 15
# of unsupported tests 23
/usr/local/src/gdbcvs/build-bare/gdb/testsuite/../../gdb/gdb version
6.8.50.200
81002-cvs -nx
make: *** [check] Error 1
This seems like a "normal" outcome for cygwin native gdb.
Thus I would like to get approval for the following patch,
