That sounds good to me.

I have heard that HP has a new compiler which follows the multi-vendor
standard C++ ABI.  In my dreams, that means that the gcc v3 code will
work with that new compiler.

At some point we'll have to face the HP music.

Again that sounds good to me.

The old style was to use gdb_test as much as possible.  But I actually
like this new multi-armed gdb_expect style.  Maybe when things calm down
we can move to Daniel's new gdb_test_multiple, too.

I'll be reviewing the patch later this evening after I re-do my
HAVE_UINTPTR_T patch.
