Hello,

The attached patch tweeks dejagnu/lib/remote/exp so that it uses the 
shell's background rather than the TCL background operator when trying 
to kill a GDB that's gone wallkabout.

Turns out that expect on cygwin occasionaly and mysteriously die when 
executing the TCL background.  While the cygwin problems now appear 
fixed, the problem is still out there in the field :-(

look ok (fernando I guess?),

Andrew
