Thanks, Sergio, for your review.
I agree that the escaping is OK.
Regarding the issue of the extra 'L' at the end, I think I understand
what happened: The initial patch was using PyLong_FromUnsignedLongLong
to create the line number which, as it name indicates, returns a
Python Long, hence the 'L'. but then, probably prompted by review,
Phil changed it to use gdb_py_object_from_longest which only uses
a long if the value does not fit in an 'int'. But because of the missing
escaping, the change in output was never noticed, and so the test
never got adjusted.
The patch is approved after applying Sergio's comments.
Thanks!
