This is quite odd.  The same thing does not happen here, in the roughly
same configuration (gcc 2.95.3+patches instead of 2.95.2).  There's a
failure in maint print type, which I expected but forgot to mention (I
changed the debugging output; I'll submit a testsuite fix separately). 
I can't even reproduce it with your binary, in my test harness, running
maint.exp!

Does your testbed build in a clean object directory?  If not, it's
possible that I missed yet another dependency on gdbtypes.h, but that
seems unlikely from your binary's debug info.

I need a helping hand here.
