[PATCH] Fix annota1.exp: run until main breakpoint in some pc

Got "FAIL: gdb.base/annota1.exp: new thread (timeout)" in some pc, because:
\x1a\x1apost-prompt
Starting program: /scratch/hzhu/zd3/obj/test-2014.05-999999-i686-pc-linux-gnu/host-i386-linux/default/gdb.d/gdb.base/annota1
warning: the debug information found in "/lib/ld-2.11.1.so" does not match "/lib/ld-linux.so.2" (CRC mismatch).
The warning line make this test get fail.

Make a patch that add "|.*warning: the debug information found in.*" to
test to handle this fail.

Thanks,
Hui

Since you are touching this, can I make an impassioned plea to replace 
this huge, incomprehensible mess with something a little more sane, 
using tcl lists, variable substitutions, and the join command? Like so:

set output_list {}
lappend output_list A
lappend output_list B
lappend output_list C
set expected [join $output_list "\r\n"]
gdb_test_multiple "run" run until main breakpoint" {
    -re $expected { pass "run until main breakpoint" }
    # ...
}

This is /phenomenally/ easier to read, modify, and figure what went 
wrong with a FAIL.

It is relatively easy to take this command and break it at line breaks, 
e.g., [please excuse me if my mail client wraps this]

{}
\032\032post-prompt
Starting program: $binexp \(\r\nwarning: Skipping \[^\r\n\]+ .gdb_index 
section in \[^\r\n\]+
Do \"set use-deprecated-index-sections on\" before the file is read\r\n
to use the section anyway\\.\|.*warning: the debug information found 
in.*)?\(\(\r\n\r\n\032\032frames-invalid\)|\(\r\n\r\n\032\032breakpoints-invalid\)\)*
{}
\032\032starting\(\(\r\n\r\n\032\032frames-invalid\)|\(\r\n\r\n\032\032breakpoints-invalid\)\)*
{}
\032\032breakpoint 1

and so on.

I would go so far as to set variables for all those optional warnings 
and annotations [to turn them into simpler regexps like 
"$skip_section_warning|$debug_info_warning"]. Likewise with the 
(repeated) "frames-invalid" and "breakpoints-invalid" annotations.

Of course, this is a bit beyond the original patch (which is okay), and 
therefore a maintainer may just advise that you ignore my plea, which 
you are welcome to do anyway. :-)
