RFA: Check for corruption of cv_type chain



This extends hang.exp to test for both of the bugs described in its
comments.

2002-05-03  Jim Blandy  <jimb@redhat.com>

	* gdb.c++/hang.exp: Check for corruption of the cv_type chain.
	If we're compiling with GCC, pass the -gstabs+ flag, to get
	the stabs needed to trigger the bug.
	* gdb.c++/hang3.C: New file.
