I expected something like that.  In such case there should be XFAIL (or maybe
a different pseudo-FAIL variant but XFAIL seems OK to me) like we did in:
	Re: Regression on gdb.ada/null_array.exp [Re: [patch] DW_AT_byte_size for array type entries]
	http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2010-11/msg00093.html

Could you best describe the difference - probably in readelf -wi output - that
can be checked by the .exp file for XFAIL?

Yes, I find that part fine when we do not necessarily even increase the number
of FAILs messing up all the various testsuite cross-checks.


Thanks,
