Don't worry too much about the testsuite: it's still largely incomplete.
Most of the problems crop up in c_variable or cpp_variable, but most of
these failures are problems with gdb.
FWIW, the last time I tweaked the testsuite, I wrote quite a thesis
about it in src/gdb/testsuite/gdb.gdbtk/README.
It works on both unix(en) and cygwin. For unix(en) hosts, I recommend
having Xvfb installed -- the README will explain a lot more about that
than I could possibly hope to convey at this time.
Zzzzz,
Keith
