Why not use gdb_breakpoint? Is it because you want to test that the
breakpoint was placed in the right file? If so, you need to use a
regular expression for the breakpoint number as below. I'd rather just
use gdb_breakpoint though.

Why not use gdb_test for this?

Try to avoid using send_gdb directly. You can construct the pattern in
a variable and use gdb_test.

That's a lot of wildcards. Can't you put a marker comment on the lines
you want to reach?

Please be more precise. "\$\[0-9\]* = 3" should be enough.
