Certain PIE executables produced by gold cannot be debugged by gdb after
being stripped. GDB requires program headers of PIE executables to match,
and those checks may fail due to adjustments made during stripping.
One case of this occurs because strip recomputes the memsz of PT_TLS and
does not add alignment, while gold does. This is another variant of PR
11786, so apply the same fix of relaxing the program header matching.

Thanks, as far as I understand this patch is correct. I pushed it with some
minor changes outlined below.

Hmm, the new test fails on the buildbot, see here for example:
https://gdb-build.sergiodj.net/builders/Fedora-x86_64-m64/builds/10711
On the buildbot:
x/i $pc^M

(gdb) FAIL: gdb.base/gcore-tls-pie.exp: x/i $pc

#0 0x000055555555467d in ?? ()^M
(gdb) FAIL: gdb.base/gcore-tls-pie.exp: unstripped + core ok
on my machine:
x/i $pc^M
=> 0x55555555460d <break_here+4>: mov $0x0,%eax^M
(gdb) PASS: gdb.base/gcore-tls-pie.exp: x/i $pc

#0 break_here () at

28 *(int *) 0 = 0;^M
(gdb) PASS: gdb.base/gcore-tls-pie.exp: unstripped + core ok
Does anybody see the failure locally?

Certain PIE executables produced by gold cannot be debugged by gdb after
being stripped. GDB requires program headers of PIE executables to match,
and those checks may fail due to adjustments made during stripping.
One case of this occurs because strip recomputes the memsz of PT_TLS and
does not add alignment, while gold does. This is another variant of PR
11786, so apply the same fix of relaxing the program header matching.
