I patched the test case in question (mi-cli.exp) to fix this problem.
Then I patched gdb to disable the new "maint set target-async" by
default (and to make "set target-async" enable this mode as well ... a
hack only needed when doing this kind of test) and re-ran the test
suite. This passed. So, I don't think there should be any other bugs
that will bite on a non-target-async system. That said, I will test the
next revision of the series on AIX, which is truly not-async.
