When I was fixing these tests:

2009-10-20 Paul Pluzhnikov <ppluzhnikov@google.com>

* gdb.base/consecutive.exp: Adjust.
* gdb.base/display.exp: Likewise.
* gdb.base/pc-fp.exp: Likewise.
* gdb.base/sigbpt.exp: Likewise.

I did think about making the '=> ' marker optional, but rejected the
idea: it seems that the only context where you'd really want to turn
it off is the test suite.

OTOH, Daniel Jacobowitz did write on Mon, 19 Oct 2009 14:48:53 -0400:

so I'll take a vote.

The 'set print program-counter-marker on/off' feature itself is
trivial to implement, I believe.
