Hmm, that sounds like an outdated testcase to copy.  See
gdb.threads/corethreads.exp, for example, and the use of the core_find
procedure.  Can we use that procedure here too?

I also don't see why (gdbserver && !is_remote) testing can't work, such as
with --target=native-gdbserver and --target=native-extended-gdbserver boards.
It works for gdb.threads/corethreads.exp, for example.

Thanks,
Pedro Alves
