The maint.exp changes in question cause testsuite failures on my
system for 'maint print symbols' and 'maint print psymbols'. I've
played around with it a bit; it seems to me that if I do
(gdb) maint print symbols symbols_output ./gdb.base/break.c
(which is what maint.exp does in my situation) then I get an empty
file symbols_output, whereas if I just do
(gdb) maint print symbols symbols_output gdb.base/break.c
then I get the correct symbols_output file. Here, I'm running GDB
from within the testsuite directory; I don't use a separate build
directory when configuring GDB, which might or might not make a
difference.
