    [gdb/testsuite] Fix gdb.dwarf2/dw-form-strx-out-of-bounds.exp
   =20
    With test-case gdb.dwarf2/dw-form-strx-out-of-bounds.exp, I usually get:
    ...
    (gdb) file dw-form-strx-out-of-bounds
    Reading symbols from dw-form-strx-out-of-bounds...
    (gdb) ptype global_var
    DWARF Error: Offset from DW_FORM_GNU_str_index or DW_FORM_strx pointing=
 \
      outside of .debug_str_offsets section in CU at offset 0x2d1 [in modul=
e \
      dw-form-strx-out-of-bounds]
    No symbol "global_var" in current context.
    (gdb) PASS: $exp: ptype global_var
    ...
   =20
    But I just ran into:
    ...
    (gdb) file dw-form-strx-out-of-bounds^M
    Reading symbols from dw-form-strx-out-of-bounds...
    DWARF Error: Offset from DW_FORM_GNU_str_index or DW_FORM_strx pointing=
 \
      outside of .debug_str_offsets section in CU at offset 0x2df [in modul=
e \
      dw-form-strx-out-of-bounds]^M
    (gdb) ptype global_var^M
    No symbol "global_var" in current context.^M
    (gdb) FAIL: $exp: ptype global_var
    ...
   =20
    Fix this by:
    - using "maint set dwarf synchronous on" to ensure that the error happe=
ns
      during the file command
    - updating the matching to check $gdb_file_cmd_msg
   =20
    Tested gdb.dwarf2/dw-form-strx-out-of-bounds.exp and gdb.dwarf2/dw-form=
-strx.exp
    using make-check-all.sh on x86_64-linux.
