Good point, but I'd rather not address this in the current patch. I don't
want to change the test itself, but just make the check available to other
tests.

Ultimately, I want to use it in this patch [1] where I really want to check
for GDBserver. I want to KFAIL a test only when using gdbserver, due to a
known bug in gdbserver.
