I've confirmed this.

It works.  I've pushed the patch below now, to unblock the builder.

More could/should be done though.  A number of boards do "set_board_info isremote 0",
so should be failing in the same way.  Sounds like it'd be good to have a
shared file all those boards would source, and we'd move
native-extended-gdbserver.exp's version there.  (TBC, I'm not planning on
doing that myself.)

Subject: [PATCH] Fix '--target_board=native-extended-gdbserver/-m32'

Running the testsuite with the native-extended-gdbserver.exp board and
passing a variant spec, like

  make check RUNTESTFLAGS="--target_board=native-extended-gdbserver/-m32"

results in dejagnu trying to open a rsh connection to
"native-extended-gdbserver", which of course is wrong.  The point of
this board is running things locally.

The issue is that the native-extended-gdbserver board does not clear
the "isremote" flag properly.
