Tricky to catch two independent messages triggered by the same command
that way while still producing a fail if either fails to match, so I
put them now in a single regexp.

Punting it is :-)  Tricky, since prelink doesn't report an error in
this case.  Fortunately prelink -u does.

How's this?  I've tested it on amd64-linux-gnu, with and without
prelinked system libraries.  I got the warning in the latter case, and
a pass in the former.

for gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog
from  Alexandre Oliva  <aoliva@redhat.com>

	* gdb.base/prelink.exp: Add -q to prelink runs.  Rename
	executable to prelinkt.  Don't re-prelink if we didn't get a
	core file.  Test prelink -u exit status to tell whether
	prelinking failed.  Use gdb_test_multiple.
