testsuite errors on Red Hat 8.0

I just updated GDB on my laptop for the first time in a while, and I'm
seeing some new testsuite errors: in gdb.base/completion.exp, I get:

FAIL: gdb.base/completion.exp: (timeout) complete 'info func mar'
FAIL: gdb.base/completion.exp: (timeout) complete 'set follow-fork-mode'

and in gdb.threads/pthreads.exp, I get:

FAIL: gdb.threads/pthreads.exp: check backtrace from main thread
FAIL: gdb.threads/pthreads.exp: apply backtrace command to all three threads

Anybody else seeing these? I don't get them on my desktop machine;
the laptop runs Red Hat 8.0, the desktop runs Red Hat 7.3; I'm not
sure what other differences might be relevant. Unfortunately, it's
been about a month since I last updated GDB on my laptop, so I can't
really narrow down when this occurred.
