I spotted another failure, when running with native-extended-gdbserver:


254 (gdb) file /home/smarchi/build/binutils-gdb/gdb/testsuite/outputs/gdb.base/index-cache/index-cache^M
255 Reading symbols from /home/smarchi/build/binutils-gdb/gdb/testsuite/outputs/gdb.base/index-cache/index-cache...^M
256 /home/smarchi/src/binutils-gdb/gdb/gdbtypes.h:967: internal-error: field: Assertion `idx >= 0 && idx < num_fields ()' failed.^M
257 A problem internal to GDB has been detected,^M
258 further debugging may prove unreliable.^M
259 ERROR: Couldn't load index-cache into GDB (GDB internal error).

I don't know why it would be specific to native-extended-gdbserver,
maybe it changes the timing in just the right (wrong) way.  I haven't
dug into it yet.
