That seems like a lot of failures. Are any of these the ones Vladimir
pointed out?:

        FAIL: gdb.base/annota1.exp: continue to printf
        FAIL: gdb.base/annota1.exp: send SIGUSR1
        FAIL: gdb.base/annota1.exp: signal sent
        FAIL: gdb.cp/annota2.exp: continue to exit
        FAIL: gdb.cp/annota2.exp: watch triggered on a.x

If that's to wind me up - that's fine, I probably can't expect any more,
but I hope it's not GDB policy.

In this particular case, it's not a problem because Emacs doesn't use
frames-invalid annotations - but it does use others.
