Not in my checkout:

202-environment-directory ../../../src/gdb/testsuite/gdb.mi
202^done,source-path="/opt/src/binutils/x86-as/gdb/testsuite/../../../src/gdb/testsuite/gdb.mi:$cdir:$cwd"
(gdb) 
FAIL: gdb.mi/mi-basics.exp: environment-directory arg operation

Oh, that's a different problem.  Using ${srcdir} that way doesn't work
if configured with a relative srcdir.  Just an extra wildcard will fix
it for now.

(i.e. I built this tree with ../../../src/configure)

Thank you very much for following up on this!  The testsuite patch
looks reasonable to my inexperienced eye.
