Thanks for doing that, we really like testcases, so I appreciate
the effort.

Overall, this looks OK to me, but Mark seemed interested in reviewing
this patch, so please wait for his comments as well. Again, I think
that dwarf2.h needs to be approved by binutils - it's probably going
to be routine, but you never know.

The .S file needs a copyright header. Would you be able to re-generate
the file with -dA, by any chance. It makes the DWARF data more readable.
Otherwise, no problem, it's already fine as it is.

We do not use gdb_suppress_tests anymore. runto_main already logs
a FAIL if it does not work, so you can simply return -1 for instance.
I don't think the return value makes any difference in our context.
