Hmm, true, the error message is stored in the block but the error message is
printed only after the exception cleanups were run.  You can use there (do not
use this indentation):

{ volatile struct gdb_exception except;
  TRY_CATCH (except, RETURN_MASK_ERROR)
    {
      execute_command (pipe->gdb_cmd, from_tty);
    }
  if (except.reason < 0)
    exception_print (gdb_stderr, except);
}


Thanks,
