Hello, This adds a new global (compiler_info) and procedure (test_compiler_info) to GDB's test framework. For GNUC, the variable is set to: gnuc-- eg gnuc-3-3 while for other compilers it is set to "unknown". test_compiler_info can be used (like test_debug_format) for a specific compiler vis: [test_compiler_info gnuc-3-*] for a version 3 GNU C compiler.
