[Bug runtime/17894] global_opt_unknown.exp failure


https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=17894

--- Comment #4 from Josh Stone <jistone at redhat dot com> ---
Ah, ignoring is relatively new behavior:

54041d8a7333 modules: don't fail to load on unknown parameters.
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=54041d8a73337411b485ff76957fb106cb5d40d0

$ git describe --contains 54041d8a7333
v3.11-rc1~44^2~2

Given that kernels are now inconsistent, this can't be helped.  I think it's
best to keep the dyninst runtime following newer kernels, but I'll see about
tweaking the test for kernels prior to 3.11.
