That seems to have been added by:
 https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2015-12/msg00357.html

curious how it seems to have worked back then.  I wonder whether
it was GDB's CLI-in-MI output that changed meanwhile?

I'd have appreciated a bit more detail on what is actually broken in
the pattern.  The git log above gives no clue, and the diff is not
exactly easy to read.  I trust that it's now correct though.  Thus, OK.

Thanks,
