No.  It will not because the fail just happen when the target use remote 
file io to handle this system call.

I am so sorry that I didn't explain this patch very clear.
The test before "set remote system-call-allowed 1" is to test the 
function that introduced in 
https://sourceware.org/gdb/current/onlinedocs/gdb/system.html "Due to 
security concerns, the system call is by default refused by GDB. The 
user has to allow this call explicitly with the set remote 
system-call-allowed 1 command."

So 3 part of this test is for:

gdb_test_no_output "set debug remote 1"
# Open the switch to check if this target use file io to handle this 
system or not.

set msg "System says shell is not available"
gdb_test_multiple "continue" $msg {
     -re "Continuing\\..*Fsystem.*system 1:.*OK$stop_msg\r\n$gdb_prompt $" {
	pass $msg
     }

Target uses file io handle system and it gets OK.
Then the test pass.

     -re ".*Fsystem.*$gdb_prompt $" {
	fail $msg
     }

Target uses file io handle system and it doesn't OK.
Then the test fail.

     -re "$gdb_prompt $" {
	unsupported $msg
     }

Target doesn't use file io.  The test is not support.

}

Thanks,
Hui
