[rfa:testsuite] Revamp page.exp, stop random failures

- Subject: [rfa:testsuite] Revamp page.exp, stop random failures
Hello,
I've been finding that page.exp doesn't pass reliably. It would appear
to be because the output from `info set' is getting too large. The
attached revamps page.exp so that it tests things without using ``info
set''. Interestingly, the old test didn't check that changing
pagination had an effect, this test does check that :-)
Hopefully also fixes some duplicated test messages.
ok?
Andrew

* gdb.base/page.exp: Rewrite to problems with very long `info set'
output. Update copyright.
