    . analysis

      In gdb HEAD, this script has new tests for targets i[3456]86-*-*.

      This script is failing in my testbed, which uses binutils HEAD.
      I tried the stable binutils (binutils 2.11.2) and the vendor binutils
      (/bin/as and /bin/ld) with the same results.

      This looks like a problem in either my test bed or in the test script.
      It needs further investigation.

  . gdb.base/code-expr.exp
  [ok]

    . analysis

      These are new tests and they pass.

  . gdb.base/interrupt.exp
  . gdb.threads/pthreads.exp
  . gdb.threads/linux-dp.exp
  [ok]

    . A register access bug in gdb was fixed.

  . gdb.c++/annota2.exp
  [ok]

    . analysis

      This test is flaky -- it changes results a lot.
      I have not investigated this.

  . gdb.c++/namespace.exp
  [ok]

    . analysis

      A typo was fixed in a test name.



. Coverage

  . Platforms

    native i686-pc-linux-gnu (red hat linux 7.1)

  . Versions

    . naming convention

      versions which start with a number are official releases.
      versions named HEAD are the cvs HEAD (mainline).
      versions with any other name are cvs branches.

        Each test run generates a list of nine numbers:

. ERRORs and WARNINGs

      PASS: gdb.base/setvar.exp: set variable *(v_signed_short_pointer+1)=-456
      ERROR: Process no longer exists
      UNRESOLVED: gdb.base/setvar.exp: set variable signed short pointer

    . analysis

      This is a metacharacter problem with some "\{" constructions which
      should be "\\}.  It has been fixed in gdb mainline; the fix needs to be
      brought to gdb 5.1 branch.

      /berman/fsf/_today_/berman/native/install/gcc/HEAD/include/g++-v3/backward/backward_warning.h:32:2: warning: #warning This file includes at least one deprecated or antiquated header. Please consider using one of the 32 headers found in section 17.4.1.2 of the C++ standard. Examples include substituting the <X> header for the <X.h> header for C++ includes, or <sstream> instead of the deprecated header <strstream.h>. To disable this warning use -Wno-deprecated.

    . analysis

      The test program gdb.c++/userdef.cc includes the obsolete header
      <iostream.h>.  It needs to include <iostream> instead.  This causes a
      gcc warning with gcc HEAD, which leads to 4 ERRORs and 2 WARNINGs in
      both gdb mainline and 5.1 branch.
