GDB can't "return" floating point values vis:
(gdb) PASS: gdb.base/call-sc.exp: ptype; call-sc-tf (float)
ptype foo
type = float
(gdb) PASS: gdb.base/call-sc.exp: ptype foo; call-sc-tf float
...
(gdb) PASS: gdb.base/call-sc.exp: zed L for return; return call-sc-tf
return foo
Make fun return now? (y or n) y
#0 main () at /home/cygnus/cagney/PENDING/YYYY-MM-DD-scalars-exp/src/gdb/testsuite/gdb.base/ca
ll-sc.c:78
78 L = fun ();
(gdb) next
79 zed ();
(gdb) PASS: gdb.base/call-sc.exp: return foo; return call-sc-tf
p/c L
$4 = 0 '\0'
(gdb) KFAIL: gdb.base/call-sc.exp: value foo returned; return call-sc-tf (PRMS: gdb/...)
