I cannot reproduce it with current head :-( There was an error in
creating that core file. 

For my opinion that variable should be initialized in every case. The testcase
should return a FAIL if GDB's output doesn't match the reg exp but not exit with an error.

<snip>
global core_supported
if {!$core_supported} {
  return -1
}
</snip>

However, this testcase runs without error now. Thanks for your effort.
