Hi Tom,

Yes, this annoys me as well, but the problem is a bit more complicated.  Our CI
automatically updates xfails file, which includes both failed test in the
baseline and flaky tests.

The problem with this test, is that it consistently fails in our post-commit CI
jobs, but tends to pass in the pre-commit jobs.  Since we are using baseline
results from the post-commit CI to compare pre-commit CI results against -- we
get this "progression".

We have it on our TODO list to fix this problem, but it requires digging into
the GDB testsuite logic to understand where the different behavior is coming
from.
