Yeah.  Ideally I think we wouldn't let EVAL_* escape eval.c.  Not your
problem though.

This seems like a fine idea to me.

I wonder what happens here if you actually do want the constructor.
Like "print B::B".  Will it still find the baseclass?

Probably this function requires check_typedef sprinkled liberally
around.

Keith> +      const char *base_name = TYPE_BASECLASS_NAME (parent_type, i);

Keith> +
Keith> +      if (streq (base_name, name))

It is possible to have ambiguous base classes?
And if so, where is that diagnosed?

Another horrible thought is what does "this->typedef_name::field" mean?
Anything?  What is typedef_name is a typedef for one of the base classes?

Keith> +gdb_test "print D::i" "Cannot reference non-static field \"i\""

Keith> +gdb_test "print D::i" "= 4"

Duplicated test names.
I think there are more than one.
It's fine to just wrap the sequences in with_test_prefix though.
