The non-zero status code is a consequence of a feature that I am
testing in this testcase, which is an *unhandled* exception. So
I need the exception to propagate all the way.
So, I think we have no choice but to change the testcase itself,
or enhance gdb_continue_to_end to be able to say that we expect
the inferior to terminate with a non-zero status.
I think the latter solution is probably preferable, because I'm
pretty sure I'll mis-handle bareboard, or remote/gdbserver, or
some other unusual configuration...
I can look at that tomorrow.
