The test introduced by this patch does not work with clang, it adds 110 
fails, and almost all successes seem to be incorrect. I left inlined 
thoughts on the incorrect successes, and the fails are pretty self 
evident based on those thoughts, if they are correct. Unfortunately, 
something is up with my local setup and I can't run the test locally to 
double check, I'm stuck at looking at the buildbot log.

In the clang buildbot we're getting this output:

(gdb) catch syscall group:process
warning: Can not parse XML syscalls information; XML support was 
disabled at compile time.
Unknown syscall group 'process'.
(gdb) PASS: gdb.threads/stepi-over-clone.exp: catch process syscalls

This should be a failure, and should likely skip the next few tests.

I don't know

I may be mis-interpreting this part of the test and log, but it seems 
that we set no breakpoints at all when testing in the buildbot, which 
seems to be the reason for all the failures. This is what the log says 
in this part:
