Report Python errors coming from gdb.post_event
PR python/14062 points out that errors coming from the gdb.post_event callback are not reported. This can make it hard to understand why your Python code in gdb isn't working. Because users have control over whether exceptions are printed at all, it seems good to simply have post_event report errors in the usual way. 2018-09-23 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> PR python/14062: * python/python.c (gdbpy_run_events): Do not ignore exceptions. gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog 2018-09-23 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> PR python/14062: * gdb.python/python.exp: Add test for post_event error.
