I've applied the patch, ran the regression test without rebuilding and 
verified that it failed, then rebuild and verified that it passed.

The code LGTM.

FWIW, I think the regexp could be make more readable using $decimal:
...
-gdb_test "print 23" "\[0-9\]+\\.\[0-9\]+ Operation: OP_LONG.* = 23"
+gdb_test "print 23" "$decimal\\.$decimal Operation: OP_LONG.* = 23"
...

Agreed.
