I think the attached patch should eliminate this failure.  Can you
also test on your side to eliminate GCC version differences (I do not
think it matters, but I want to double check)?  All that I did is to
remove 'simple_struct' and its test, and add a static function and a
test for it.

testsuite:

        * py-symbol.c (simple_struct): Remove
        (static_func): New static func
        * py-symtab.exp: Remove test to test presence of 'simple_struct'
        in STATIC_BLOCK, add test to test presence of 'static_func' in
        STATIC_BLOCK.

Thanks,
Siva Chandra
