Re: [PATCH] Defer breakpoint reset when cloning progspace for fork child

I'm not sure I agree with no test, though.  I think a simple test
that tries both pie and not-pie would be useful, because
defaults vary depending on distro/system and they change over
time -- having a smoke test like the one described above covering both
pie and non-pie ensures no developer or testing environment where pie
might be relevant ever misses the problem in the future.

Doing this means we'll need to update tests on an individual basis to test pie and non-pie. In order to be able to run all tests with pie executables (even on machines where it isn't the default), wouldn't it be better to have a target board for it, like we have dwarf4-gdb-index.exp, fission.exp and fission-dwp.exp?
