I think this is a KFAIL.  Assuming that the information coming out of the
compiler is correct, then it is not an XFAIL.

The PR would be easy: gdb can't handle variables with complex or
multiple locations.

On my next spin I'll report on the numerous red hat linux 8
configurations and I can submit KFAIL-ish patches for the new tests.
