gdb/testsuite: Force DWARF debuginfo where applicable in AIX systems
In the AIX systems available for testing in the gcc compile farm, the
default debug information format is stabs. This is a problem for many
reasons, mainly that stabs is not as complete as dwarf and stabs is
being deprecated in the next release. In the current state, we have:
PASS: 39798
FAIL: 7405
When running these tests, I unfortunately didn't have the foresight to
save the number of unsupported and untested cases.
To improve testing there, this patch changes the gdb_compile TCL proc, so
that if we're running tests in AIX, we requested debug info, and we
haven't explicitly asked for some debuginfo format, gdb_compile will add
-gdwarf to the compilation line, forcing DWARF to be used. After this
patch, we get:
PASS: 74548
FAIL: 5963
So not only do we have fewer failures, there are tens of thousands of
tests that are no longer skipped.
