I'd prefer to see GDB_OSABI_AIX set via a sniffer.  For the time
being, you can just use ``from_xcoff_exec'' for the test.  Please
add a comment which indicates that the test ought to be eventually
changed to use GDB_OSABI_AIX when it becomes available.  (Actually,
once things are properly split apart, the test goes away.)
