Hi,
if you run gdb.base/fileio.exp as UID 0 it will print:
FAIL: gdb.base/fileio.exp: Open for write but no write permission returns EACCES
FAIL: gdb.base/fileio.exp: Unlinking a file in a directory w/o write access returns EACCES
Regards,
Jan

* gdb.base/fileio.c (ROOTSUBDIR): New macro.
(main): CHDIR into ROOTSUBDIR. CHOWN ROOTSUBDIR and CHDIR into
ROOTSUBDIR if we are being run as root.
* gdb.base/fileio.exp: Change the startup and finish cleanup.
Change the test file reference to be into the `fileio.dir' directory.
