Do we need to catch exception here?
I see the error when I run gdb-sigterm.exp with native-gdbserver
on x86_64-linux.
infrun: prepare_to_wait^M
Cannot execute this command while the target is running.^M
Use the "interrupt" command to stop the target^M
and then try again.^M
gdb.base/gdb-sigterm.exp: expect eof #0: got eof
gdb.base/gdb-sigterm.exp: expect eof #0: stepped 12 times
ERROR OCCURED: : spawn id exp8 not open
while executing

("uplevel" body line 1)
invoked from within
In gdb-sigterm.exp, SIGTERM is sent to GDB and it exits. However,
Dejagnu or tcl doesn't know this.

This error terminates the whole testing, so the following tests are
not run.
I wrap the send_gdb and gdb_expect statement above by "catch",
testing looks fine, although error messages are still shown in the
console and gdb.log.

This patch is to catch the exception, but error messages are still
shown in the console and gdb.log.
