Hi,

On SLE-11, I run into:
...
FAIL: gdb.base/batch-preserve-term-settings.exp: batch run: spawn shell \
  (timeout)
...

The problem is that the shell prompt has PS1="\h:\w> ", but the test expects
a shell prompt ending in a space preceded by either '$' or '#':
...
set shell_prompt_re "\[$#\] "
...

We could easily fix this by adding '>' to shell_prompt_re, but this wouldn't
work for other PS1 setting.

Fix this instead by setting the shell prompt to "gdb-subshell$ " (as in
gdb.base/multi-line-starts-subshell.exp).

Tested on x86_64-linux.

Any comments?

Thanks,
- Tom
