Hi

RTEMS has a board support package for the jmr3904 simulator in gdb and it
has broken.   I used git bisect to track down when this broke. This is a
portion of the git bisect log

good  gdb-10.2-release
bad   gdb-11.2-release
...............
git bisect good 162c6aef1f3a96923e75f0b4ef430822d273465c
# good: [07490bf81d2fc91676eb71b77e07f80f20fc1b54] sim: unify various

The full bisect log, gdb output and a test executable are at
https://devel.rtems.org/ticket/4689. I was going to file this at the gdb
Bugzilla but am having an issue with my account right now.

Is there a test case for the jmr3904? Or is the RTEMS use case not
accounted for in a current test?

FWIW RTEMS stable tools for development use gdb 11.2 while the unstable are
tracking master.

Thanks.
