It fails for me too. I ran with -v and saw this in the .log:
RESULT = 11271 exp6 0 0
PASS: gdb.base/batch-exit-status.exp: -batch: [lindex $result 2] == 0
PASS: gdb.base/batch-exit-status.exp: -batch: $actual_status == $expect_status

Note how the PID doesn't change.
I suspect that what is happening is that gdb_spawn_id isn't being reset,
and so we're hitting this code in default_gdb_spawn:
if [info exists gdb_spawn_id] {
return 0
}
Something has to unset this after each invocation.
Maybe calling clear_gdb_spawn_id, but I don't know if that's best or if
there should be something else.
