It seems like:
http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2011-11/msg01543.html
we have a problem on powerpc-darwin9
(although i686-darwin9 and x86-64-darwin10 seem OK)
this prevents the test-suite finishing with gdb just spinning... and
you have to kill each invocation by hand (seems like the expect
timeout logic is not working somehow)....
for now, it would be good to disable this - to allow progress
(I have a partial patch to gdb 7.31 that allows it to work with
powerpc-darwin9 -- but not ready yet).
OK for trunk?
