commit 934a1764071ebe9d6e148e741b55bafb036a7cc6

    Fix gdb.python/py-format-string.exp with Clang
    
    GDB includes the virtual table pointer when formatting polymorphic
    C++ objects for printing, but GCC and Clang name these differently:
    GCC emits a DW_AT_name of "_vptr.Base" when describing the virtual
    table pointer of a type derived from type "Base", whereas Clang
    will emit "_vptr$Base" in this situation.  This commit fixes a
    testcase which failed because of this.
    
    gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
    
            * gdb.python/py-format-string.exp (test_deref_refs): Treat
            "_vptr$Base" as correct, in addition to "_vptr.Base".
            (test_mixed): Likewise.
