In commit
af2b87e649b ("[gdb/testsuite] Add xfail for PR gcc/101633"), I added
an xfail that was controlled by variable old_gcc, triggering the xfail for
gcc 7 and before, but not for gcc 8 onwards:
...
set old_gcc [expr [test_compiler_info {gcc-[0-7]-*}]]
...
In commit
1411185a57e ("Introduce and use gnat_version_compare"), this changed
to:
...
set old_gcc [gnat_version_compare <= 7]
...
which still triggered the xfail for gcc 7, because of a bug in
gnat_version_compare.
After that bug got fixed, the xfail was no longer triggered because the gnatmake
version is 7.5.0, and [version_compare {7 5 0} <= {7}] == 0.
We could have the semantics for version_compare where we clip the input
arguments to the length of the shortest, and so we'd have
[version_compare {7 5 0} <= {7}] == [version_compare {7} <= {7}] == 1.
But let's stick with the current version-sort semantics, and fix this by
using [gnat_version_compare < 8] instead.
Tested on x86_64-linux.
