Thanks for catching this.
This is because of the discussion on:
<https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2015-04/msg00452.html>
And the patch:
<https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2015-04/msg00979.html>
It seems it is not possible to "clear" the variable using "" and then
use as an array. I think the best way would be to call 'unset
-nocomplain' in this case. The following patch does this. With it
applied, the test fully passes on Fedora 20 x86_64 native.
WDYT?
