ok, go it! I was able to run the testcase, now I am trying to determine
why the testcase broke/failed, is there a way to re-create the failure
manually by running GDB against the test (using the assertion) that
failed?

See the gdb/testsuite/gdb.log file for what was going on.

For example how does the testcase translate variables like $hex? how does
it know that $hex is the right value that GDB prints??


It's a convenience regexp which matches a hex value. $decimal, $ws (whitespace), $nl, etc. are also used in test cases.
