Here's a revision of this test, which depends on the addition of the
gdb_internal_error_resync function and its use in gdb_test, done in
the previous patch.

gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
2002-11-01  Jim Blandy  <jimb@redhat.com>

	* gdb.base/step-line.exp: Check that GDB can handle filenames that
	appear in the line number info, but not in the preprocessor macro
	info.

+ # As of Oct 2002, GCC does record the effect of #line directives in
+ # the source line info, but not in macro info.  This means that GDB's
+ # symtabs (built from the former, among other things) may mention
+ # filenames that GDB's macro tables (built from the latter) don't have
+ # any record of.  Make sure GDB can handle this by trying to evaluate
+ # an expression, which will do a macro expansion.
