It's fine by me but I don't think the to-do list is really maintained,
and probably would make more sense to just delete.

Also maybe the remaining self-tests can't be replaced, I'm not sure.
One of them at least is for testing gdb's own pretty-printers, so that
seems pretty difficult.

Really the main problem with these is that they are fragile and, at
least for me, seem to time out a lot (I guess depending on whether I've
done a -g -O0 build or not).  So maybe it's better to just try to remove
the flaws.
