I'm working on it. Something like this is happening:
virtfunc.exp calls gdb_test_multiple
gdb_test_multiple gets the "eof" case
virtfunc.exp calls gdb_test_multiple with nearly the same pattern
gdb_test_multiple gets the "eof" case
virtfunc.exp calls gdb_test_multiple with nearly the same pattern
gdb_test_multiple gets the "eof" case
virtfunc.exp calls gdb_test_multiple with nearly the same pattern
gdb_test_multiple gets the "eof" case
virtfunc.exp calls gdb_test_multiple with a different pattern
gdb_test_multiple recovers and gets normal output!
I'll try futzing with the problem pattern and see if that makes the
problem go away.
drow> I suspect we need to do an expect update...
Well, tcl 8.4.5 + expect 5.3.9 + dejagnu 1.4.3 works fine on
hppa2.0w-hp-hpux11.11 (as well as i686-pc-linux-gnu of course).
What would it take to do an expect update? In particular, what is the
list of hosts that have to be tested with a new version of 'expect'
in order to do an expect update?
