           Summary: python's gdb.execute('interpreter-exec mi
                    an-mi-command', to_string=True) returns empty string
           Product: gdb
           Version: HEAD
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: gdb
        AssignedTo: unassigned@sourceware.org
        ReportedBy: jacques.klein@dalim.com


When to_string is set to True, mi command results are sent to stdout instead of
beeing returned by gdb.execute()

For example:

(gdb) python
>def mibug(toString):
>  r = gdb.execute('interpreter-exec mi -environment-pwd', to_string=toString)
>  print "r=>" + r + "<"
>end
(gdb) python mibug(True)
^done,cwd="/var/tmp"
(gdb) 
r=><

I can confirm it still did not work in:
GNU gdb (GDB) 7.4.1.20120717-cvs
