You got it.  I use dejagnu 1.4.2, so I'll be working from that base.
I'm willing to switch to sourceware dejagnu but I'd rather stay close
to the fsf dejagnu if I can.

Try PR gdb/460.  It mentions one failure in the bug report.  You can
download my testsuite directory tarballs off the bug report and diff
the gdb.log files to pick up the regressions in gdb.base/condbreak.exp
and gdb.base/ena-dis-br.exp.

I have 2.0 gigabytes of test directories now.  I'm still experimenting
how to communicate stuff so that people can understand it.  The testsuite
directory tarballs are just another experiment, let me know how it works.

It's kinda depressing that the test suite and the bug database are
so disjoint.  I guess we're here to fix that.
