The test script, gdb.cp/gdb1355.exp, refers to PR gdb/1355. gdb/1355 is an external PR and it refers to PR gcc/12066. So there is a gdb PR in there. dc> For another thing, though, the bug in question has been fixed, dc> so we don't expect it to fail: if it does, it should show up as a FAIL. This has been a controversy in the past, too. My view is that "KFAIL" means "Known FAIL", which basically means there is a PR for it (the PR is the locus of knowledge). dc> I would leave in the new test, with branches and comments as is, dc> but I would change all the occurrences of kfail to fail. I prefer gdb1355.exp the way it is but I would be okay with that change if other people want it that way. Michael C
