I noticed this test is running for MIPS (and probably other non-i386

Yes, it was the intention (not in every configuration - depending on what
secondary targets are supported on that host).

We were discussing it in the thread:
    https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2015-07/msg00389.html

I have verified now that on ppc64-rhel-7.1 it PASSes.  I do not have MIPS
handy, though.  Could you at least post your MIPS gdb.log?

I'm seeing this:

core-file gdb.arch/i386-biarch-core.core
gdb/mips-tdep.c:1098: internal-error: bad register size
A problem internal to GDB has been detected,
further debugging may prove unreliable.^
Quit this debugging session? (y or n)
FAIL: gdb.arch/i386-biarch-core.exp: core-file (GDB internal error)


The lines are a bit off, but basically we end up hitting the internal error at mips-tdep.c:mips_pseudo_register_read. I don't think the MIPS backend is currently crafted to handle reading unknown register blocks.
