We haven't seen exit-code.c yet :-) but I imagine that it just
returns a different error code depending on the argument?
You could instead make gdb run to main, and then set a global in the
program with the desired return code. Or build two programs, and pick
the return code depending on a macro. You can pass additional_flags=-Dfoo=bar
to prepare_for_testing/gdb_compile to define macros/symbols. Several
examples on that in the testsuite.
