I don't see such a difference, but the patch is of course fine.

git blame on the corresponding line on gdbarch.h points at:

    Regenerate gdbarch.h
    
    Not sure why, but the version currently checked in as an extraneous
    trailing whitespace that showed up as a diff when I reran gdbarch.sh.
    
    gdb/ChangeLog:
    
            * gdbarch.h: Regenerate.

:-)

I'm going to guess that you've been switching between systems, and
on some of those /bin/sh is bash while on others its dash
(most likely the latter is Ubuntu).

Regenerating gdbarch.h from scratch with bash always ends up with
that whitespace stripped for me.  If I run 'dash ./gdbarch.sh'
then indeed I see the extra space ending on up gdbarch.h.

"read" trims leading and trailing whitespace by default (on bash at least).  We
can make it not do that by setting the IFS variable to empty, like in the
patch below.  This should make it so that all shells behave the same
here (tried bash and dash), which I think would be good.

WDYT?

	* gdbarch.sh (do_read): Set IFS to blank.
