Comment 2 for bug 1420556

The gdb 7.9 test suite shows a large number of unexpected failures, but not the same number of them. It's probably safe to assume that this bug is still present, since from the description it's believed to be a toolchain issue (specific to Ubuntu gcc-4.9) and not a bug in gdb itself.
