I sent you some comments on this patch in April.  Here's another one
that may be useful:
  http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2005-05/msg00590.html

This patch fixed the bug I originally wanted this test case to test
for, and a couple of related bugs.  If you don't have time, let me
know, and I'll try to update the test myself.
