Ok, I reversed your patch and committed the patch below.
I'm just worried about my lack of sense of humor when choosing the
variable name...

PASS wouldn't be good either because if read_var finds a variable the
test doesn't exercise the error path I want it to, so the PASS doesn't
mean anything.

    Fix python-frame.exp testcase when you have libm.so debuginfo.
    
    Revert "Fix false FAIL with libm.so debuginfo installed."
    This reverts commit eff2403b365bdda84c08eb68890152ca1a58f1c6.
    
	* gdb.python/python-frame.exp (test Frame.read_var - error): Use
	variable name which surely won't exist anywhere.
