I tested with: #1 stock dejagnu #2 stock dejagnu + gdb_test_multiple #3 sourceware dejagnu + gdb_test_multiple "stock dejagnu" means tcl, expect, and dejagnu built from their primary ftp sites. "sourceware dejagnu" means tcl, expect, and dejagnu from the sources.redhat.com cvs repository, module dejagnu #1 versus #2 came out perfectly. #2 versus #3 came out with a difference in gdb.threads/pthreads.exp (#2 is consisently good, #3 has intermittent failures). Chances are about 0.5% that it's an issue with the gdb_test_multiple patch. I blew it and did not do a spin with "sourceware dejagnu" before applying the patch and I've applied other stuff to my test bed since then. > OK.

I'd like to do another test spin on the new version before you commit it if that's all right with you. I can do a cut-down version but I'd like to be really sure about sourceware dejagnu because the damn things are subtly different, and I normally don't test with it. Michael C
