Hi Matthew,
Thanks for posting this. I appreciate seeing gdb test results from diverse
architectures.
Summary: this gdb looks healthy to me. There is one major bug:
if the user uses gdb to call a function in the target program, and that
function has floating point parameters or a floating point return value,
the call will not work.
There are probably some more minor bugs but I can't tell from the gdb.sum
file.
BTW, please note that the test run produces a "gdb.sum" file and a "gdb.log"
file. The "gdb.log" file has a lot more information and it's a better file
to put up for ftp, rather than capturing the output of "make check".

ERROR: 26
23 errors in gdb.stabs/weird.exp
These look harmless; your assembler does not like .stabs directives.
3 errors from 'make' at the end of the run
More fluff.
WARNING: 3
1 warning in gdb.base/corefile.exp
'can't generate a core file' -- does not look like a gdb problem
2 warnings in gdb.stabs/weird.exp
Yeah, we know it doesn't like stabs.
FAIL: 224
190 fails in gdb.stabs/weird.exp
Will this test case shut up already?!
7 fails in gdb.base/callfwmall.exp
These are all related to calling functions with floating point
parameters or floating point return values. This looks like a
real bug in gdb.
7 fails in gdb.base/callfuncs.exp
These are all related to calling functions with floating point
parameters or floating point return values. This looks like a
real bug in gdb.
5 fails in gdb.c++/ovldbreak.exp
I would need to see gdb.log to tell whether this is a real bug or not.
3 fails in gdb.threads/pthreads.exp
Compiler can't find pthreads library so all these tests fail.
2 fails in gdb.base/commands.exp
One of these is a known bug in the test script (gnats gdb/14).
The other looks like a bug in gdb.
2 fails in gdb.base/break.exp
I don't know anything about these failures.
1 fail in gdb.base/varargs.exp
This is another call-to-function with floating point parameters.
1 fail in gdb.base/signals.exp
This is marked as 'known SV4 bug'. It may mean that 'next' will
not work on your machine and we can't fix it.
1 fail in gdb.base/selftest.exp
I don't know anything about this failure.
1 fail in gdb.base/interrupt.exp
I don't know anything about this failure.
1 fail in gdb.base/annota1.exp
I don't know anything about this failure.
