Is there a (something like):

	{info,show,set}? cplusplus-abi

command?  If there isn't there probably should be :-)

I'd imagine a test that:

	o	some how checks that the ABI
		has been selected correctly

while most C++ tests would:

	o	ask GDB what the C++ ABI is and
		then expect results accordingly.

of course, if GDB gets the first one wrong, the second one is pretty
bad.  sizeof.exp plays this trick.
