All the trace tests in gdb.trace have special case code for [m68k-*-elf], but AFAICT that's only applicable for some particular m68k implementation. IMHO it would be far better to have some board specific switch to enable this specific behaviour, rather than key off the target name. The current test is breaking for our coldfire testing. There also appears to be some unterminated string constants in the tests, which causes problem too. Now, this patch simply disables the m68k specific code, but I'm open to suggestions on what board specific variable should be tested -- perhaps d490_binfile? nathan -- Nathan Sidwell :: http://www.codesourcery.com :: CodeSourcery nathan@codesourcery.com :: http://www.planetfall.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk
