Hi Sergio,

I just noticed something out of pure coincidence. I noticed some TCL backtraces when running the testsuite that I hadn't seen before, such as:

ERROR: tcl error sourcing /home/emaisin/src/binutils-gdb/gdb/testsuite/gdb.base/sigbpt.exp.
ERROR: undefined tag "break-here"
    while executing
"error "undefined tag \"$text\"""
    (procedure "gdb_get_line_number" line 36)
    invoked from within
"gdb_get_line_number "break-here""
    (procedure "rerun_to_main" line 8)
    invoked from within
"rerun_to_main"
    (procedure "stepi_out" line 10)
    invoked from within
"stepi_out "stepi""
(file "/home/emaisin/src/binutils-gdb/gdb/testsuite/gdb.base/sigbpt.exp" line 256)
    invoked from within
"source /home/emaisin/src/binutils-gdb/gdb/testsuite/gdb.base/sigbpt.exp"
    ("uplevel" body line 1)
    invoked from within
"uplevel #0 source /home/emaisin/src/binutils-gdb/gdb/testsuite/gdb.base/sigbpt.exp"
    invoked from within
"catch "uplevel #0 source $test_file_name""

It turns out I had your test file (share-env-with-gdbserver.exp) still lying around in my repo. The procedure defined above (rerun_to_main) overrides one with the same name defined in lib/gdb.exp, breaking the tests executed after, that use this proc.
