Hi, I applied the patch series on top of commit 90d00bbd9c "Sync config
and libiberty with GCC", and ran into the following:
...
(gdb) PASS: gdb.ada/variant.exp: scenario=minimal: print nav1
print nav2^M
ERROR: GDB process no longer exists
GDB process exited with wait status 8901 exp9 0 0 CHILDKILLED SIGABRT
SIGABRT
UNRESOLVED: gdb.ada/variant.exp: scenario=minimal: print nav2

Reproduced on command line using:
...
$ gdb -batch ./outputs/gdb.ada/variant/pkg \
  -ex 'break pkg.adb:40' \
  -ex run \
  -ex 'print nav2'

Using gdb, we get more info:
...

The problem seems to be:
