[RFA] Fix for failing gdb.base/foll-fork.exp on Linux with VDSO

[Paul Pluzhnikov]

Greetings,

gdb.base/foll-fork.exp is failing for me on Linux with VDSO:

(gdb) r

Catchpoint 1 (forked process 24244), 0xffffe410 in __kernel_vsyscall ()
(gdb) bt
#0  0xffffe410 in __kernel_vsyscall ()
#1  0x4dc3a456 in fork () from /lib/tls/i686/cmov/libc.so.6
#2  0x080483df in main () at ../../../src/gdb/testsuite/gdb.base/foll-fork.c:23
(gdb) 


Attached patch fixes that.

Ok to commit?
