On x86_64-linux, if I run test-case gdb.cp/typeid.exp with target boards:
- unix/-m64
- unix/-m32
- unix/-fPIE/-pie/-m64
- unix/-fPIE/-pie/-m32
for only target board unix/-fPIE/-pie/-m32 I get:
...
(gdb) print &typeid(i)^M
could not find typeinfo symbol for 'int'^M
(gdb) FAIL: gdb.cp/typeid.exp: before starting: print &typeid(i)
print &typeid(i) == &typeid(typeof(i))^M
could not find typeinfo symbol for 'int'^M
(gdb) FAIL: gdb.cp/typeid.exp: before starting: print &typeid(i) == &typeid(typeof(i))

...

This is yet another configuration for which these tests don't work.

We're already allowing this for clang and istarget "powerpc*-*-*".

I don't think there is value in trying to detect yet another configuration.

Instead, just allow it in general.

Tested on x86_64-linux.

I don't know the history of this test.  Why is the type info for these base
types missing before running?  Is it a compiler bug or feature?

From the comment, it sounds like the type info for these should be
available once the inferior is started.  So, should maybe_missing stay
false if $started is true?

unsupported or xfail?

Hi Simon,

thanks for the review.

I don't think it's either, AFAIU it's an implementation detail.  I 
suspect in this case it's related to relocations.

But in general, there's nothing that mandates that type info needs to be 
available before starting an executable, so it's just a YMMV situation.

Yes, thanks for catching that.

Unsupported.  It's not an xfail because the environment is doing nothing 
wrong.

Thanks,

I don't really understand how that works.  In my understanding, either
there is an entry in the DWARF for the type info, or there isn't.  I
don't understand how it can appear once the inferior is started.
