[rfa:testsuite] Revamp page.exp, stop random failures


Hello,

I've been finding that page.exp doesn't pass reliably. It would appear to be because the output from `info set' is getting too large. The attached revamps page.exp so that it tests things without using ``info set''. Interestingly, the old test didn't check that changing pagination had an effect, this test does check that :-)

Hopefully also fixes some duplicated test messages.

ok?
Andrew

	* gdb.base/page.exp: Rewrite to problems with very long `info set'
	output.  Update copyright.
