gdb-head on mips-irix as of a few days ago

[Joel Brobecker <brobecker at gnat dot com>]

FYI: GDB on mips-irix is currently in a poor state. I can't really
say how usable it still is, but the results are not very encouraging.

        # of expected passes            4183
        # of unexpected failures        1962
        # of expected failures          33
        # of known failures             1
        # of unresolved testcases       387
        # of untested testcases         2
        # of unsupported tests          18

(lots of SEGVs and internal-errors)

I have a couple of patches that help a bit bring the results to this:

        # of expected passes            7457
        # of unexpected failures        1797
        # of expected failures          61
        # of known failures             5
        # of unresolved testcases       69
        # of untested testcases         3
        # of unsupported tests          9

(still plenty of internal-errors)

I have posted the first of them on binutils (xpost gdb-patches), and
the second one will be submitted soon.

A more complete report will be posted at this address when we get better
results.  I think we should get rid of all the internal-errors, which
I think are mostly in the unwinder.

I didn't look at 6.2-pre, but given the fact that the branch was cut
recently, it's pretty bad too.
