[testsuite] Disable Ctrl-V use for mingw hosts.
On mingw host, we have seen two fails as below, p int1dim[0]^V@2 Invalid character '^V' in expression. (gdb) FAIL: gdb.base/printcmds.exp: p int1dim[0]@2 p int1dim[0]^V@2^V@3 Invalid character '^V' in expression. (gdb) FAIL: gdb.base/printcmds.exp: p int1dim[0]@2@3 In the test, the comment says "# Send \026@ instead of just @ in case the kill character is @". Historically, kill character was @, and Ctrl-V (\026) is to escape the next character. However, we don't have to do so on mingw. This patch is to disable ctrl-v usage on mingw hots. With this patch applied, it becomes: p int1dim[0]@2 $607 = {0, 1} (gdb) PASS: gdb.base/printcmds.exp: p int1dim[0]@2 p int1dim[0]@2@3 $608 = {{0, 1}, {2, 3}, {4, 5}} Note that this patch is picked from Pierre's submission, [RFC 6/6] Fix remaining failures in gdb.base/printcmds.exp for mingw hosts. https://www.sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2013-09/msg00943.html gdb/testsuite: 2014-04-08 Pierre Muller <muller@sourceware.org> * gdb.base/printcmds.exp (test_artificial_arrays): Disable Ctrl-V use for mingw hosts.
