Thanks.  The use of 'long' for holding an address made me take
another look.  I thought the test must be failing to build on
Win64 due to warnings, but it turns out warnings are being
suppressed currently.  I took a stab at fixing it.  While doing
that I noticed that write_error_trace_file needs the Thumb
treatment too?

WDYT of the patch below?  I don't think we need to worry about
targets that don't have stdint.h in this test and at this
day and age.

Subject: [PATCH] gdb.trace/tfile.c: Remove Thumb bit in one more more, general
 cleanup

I noticed that the existing code casts a function's address to 'long',
but that doesn't work correctly on some ABIs, like Win64, where long
is 32-bit and while pointers are 64-bit:

  func_addr = (long) &write_basic_trace_file;

Fixing that showed there's actually another place in the file that
writes a function address to file, and therefore should clear the
Thumb bit.  This commit adds a macro+function pair to centralize the
Thumb bit handling, and uses it in both places.

The rest is just enough changes to make the file build without
warnings with "-Wall -Wextra" with x86_64-w64-mingw32-gcc and
i686-w64-mingw32-gcc cross compilers, and with -m32/-m64 on x86_64
GNU/Linux.  Currently with x86_64-w64-mingw32-gcc we get:

  $ x86_64-w64-mingw32-gcc tfile.c  -Wall -DTFILE_DIR=\"\"

The test still passes for me on x86_64 Fedora 20.

2014-07-15  Pedro Alves  <palves@redhat.com>

	* gdb.trace/tfile.c: Include unistd.h and stdint.h.
	(start_trace_file): Guard S_IRGRP and S_IROTH uses behind #ifdef.
	(tfile_write_64, tfile_write_16, tfile_write_8, tfile_write_addr)
	(tfile_write_buf): New functions.
	(add_memory_block): Rewrite using the above.
	(adjust_function_address): New function.
	(FUNCTION_ADDRESS): New macro.
	(write_basic_trace_file): Remove short_x local, and use
	tfile_write_16. Change type of func_addr local to unsigned long
	long.  Use FUNCTION_ADDRESS instead of handling the Thumb bit
	here.  Cast argument of add_memory_block to char pointer.
	(write_error_trace_file): Avoid alloca.  Use FUNCTION_ADDRESS.
	(main): Remove parameters.
	* gdb.trace/tfile.exp: Remove nowarnings.
