Testsuite failure (mi-var-child-f.exp)

[Nick Roberts <nickrob@snap.net.nz>]

I get the following fail:

Running /home/nickrob/src/gdb/testsuite/gdb.mi/mi-var-child-f.exp ...
FAIL: gdb.mi/mi-var-child-f.exp: create local variable array
FAIL: gdb.mi/mi-var-child-f.exp: get children of array
FAIL: gdb.mi/mi-var-child-f.exp: get grandchildren of array (children of first element of second index)

I didn't see this before because when I ran the testsuite it was untested
as array.f couldn't compile.  I have no file called g77 and perhaps others
don't too.  Should runtest also look for gfortran now?

array.f (used by mi-var-child-f.exp) has the line:

      DATA array/11,21,12,22,13,23/


In response to:

  -var-create - * array

I now get (gfortran):

  ^done,name="var1",numchild="6",type="int4 (0:5)"

when I used to get (g77):

^done,name="var1",numchild="3",type="int4 (2,-1:1)"


I'm pretty sure this is a problem with gfortran (incorrect DWARF output
or something) as it also happens with gfortran and an old GDB.

So that I'm not told it's a GDB issue by gfortran developers, can someone
on this list identify exactly what the problem is please?
