LGTM! Just one tiny nit...

Use "(void)" instead of "()". There was a recent policy clarification
regarding the CS to be using with testcases, and basically we decided
to try to follow the GCS as much as we reasonably could.

That's just me but I usually do a "print 1" test, just to make sure
that even if the testing framework did not detect the GDB process
dying, the "print 1" test definitely will. Not important on most,
if not all platforms, but ISTR some odd platforms where this helped.
That's just a suggestion, you don't have to follow it.
