But these tests are for the MI interface.  Register tests for specific
architectures could presumably go in gdb.base/regs.exp and tests in mi-regs.exp
could be more general e.g just check -data-list-register-names returns a list
of values, count them and use this information for tests on
-data-list-register-values.

Anyway, Daniel will approve your patch, I'm just thinking aloud.
