Proofread, looks okay to me.

Testing?  Did you test it?

In the ChangeLog, you say "remove commented-out code", but in the
patch, there's no removal of commented-out code.

Tested on powerpc-ibm-aix4.3.3.0, powerpc-unknown-linux-gnu, and
i686-pc-linux-gnu.

Thanks --- I decided to submit that as a separate patch, but forgot to
update the ChangeLog entry.  Corrected:

2004-06-03  Jim Blandy  <jimb@redhat.com>

	* gdb.base/charset.exp: Don't refer to $expect_out(1,string) in
	cases where the regexp has no groups; this grabs random text from
	the previous test suite, whatever that was.

Cool.

Recommended for self-approval.

Here's the add-on hit (which is a separate issue) ... can I get you
to mail in one of these powerpc-ibm-aix4.3.3.0 gdb.sum files to
gdb-testers.  Like, "grep -v '^PASS' gdb.sum" to remove the PASS
results first.  And add a blurb at the top saying what compiler was
used to compile the test programs.

RFA: gdb.base/charset.exp: don't use expect_out without regexp groups

[Jim Blandy]

This looks like a cut-and-paste mistake to me.  There's nothing in the
regexp for $expect_out to be referring to, so (in my case) this would
grab random text produced by callfuncs.exp and treat it as a host
charset name.
