Hmm.  Maybe this is a bug in gdb, actually:

That question (generated elsewhere) might be all we should ask.

However, for the testsuite's purpose you can go even further.  I don't
think you need gdb_unload at all, and sid is the only remaining caller
of it.  It's followed by a new gdb_file_cmd, which should suffice.
