testsuite: FAILs in funcargs.exp

[Corinna Vinschen <vinschen at redhat dot com>]

Hi,

I have the following two FAILs when running funcargs.exp, which I don't
quite understand:

  Breakpoint 37, 0x00001b42 in call6k () at testsuite/gdb.base/funcargs.c:360
  360     {
  (gdb) FAIL: gdb.base/funcargs.exp: continue to call6k

and

  Breakpoint 49, 0x00002628 in hitbottom () at testsuite/gdb.base/funcargs.c:605
  605     {
  (gdb) FAIL: gdb.base/funcargs.exp: run to hitbottom

As it turns out, gdb's reply contains in both cases an hex address plus the
word "in" while in both cases expect doesn't expect this.  As a side note,
the previous setting of these breakpoints confirms, that both breakpoints
has been hit correctly:

  (gdb) break call6k
  Breakpoint 37 at 0x1b42: file testsuite/gdb.base/funcargs.c, line 360.

  (gdb) break hitbottom
  Breakpoint 49 at 0x2628: file testsuite/gdb.base/funcargs.c, line 605.

The first case fails since testsuite/lib/gdb.exp, the procedure gdb_continue
doesn't expect a hex address:

  return [gdb_test "continue" ".*Breakpoint $decimal, $function .*" "continue to $function"];

The second case fails for the same reason in funcargs.exp, procedure
recursive_structs_by_value:

    gdb_expect {
	 -re ".*Breakpoint $decimal, hitbottom .*$gdb_prompt $" { pass "run to hitbottom" }
	 -re "$gdb_prompt $" { fail "run to hitbottom" ; gdb_suppress_tests; }
	 timeout { fail "(timeout) run to hitbottom" ; gdb_suppress_tests; }
    }

Is that a problem with these tests or why don't they expect that gdb
prints the additional hex address?
