In my experience, this testcase is "nondeterministic", meaning that it
will go back and forth between PASS and FAIL for no good reason.

I keep a list of testcases which I see that have such behaviour:

* gdb.base/annota1.exp 
  * gdb.base/annota2.exp 
  * gdb.base/annota3.exp 
  * gdb.base/checkpoint.exp 
  * gdb.base/display.exp (observed in GDB 6.5, seems fine in 6.6) 
  * gdb.base/interrupt.exp (observed in GDB 6.5, seems fine in 6.6) 
  * gdb.base/multi-forks.exp 
  * gdb.threads/attachstop.exp (observed in GDB 6.5). Test dies with: 
        ERROR: couldn't open "/proc/28696/status": no such file or directory
  * gdb.threads/schedlock.exp 
  * gdb.threads/watchthreads2.exp

Is it useful to have such list on the wiki?
