Possibly - I think if I run "configure" in .../build then cd into
.../build/gdb/testsuite and run "make check" it uses my system gdb,
maybe. (or perhaps it was if I configured just the gdb/testsuite, eg:
.../build$ ../src/gdb/testsuite/configure) I did have some trouble
with unexplained failures in the GDB 7.5 test suite even running
against Ubuntu's distribution of GDB 7.5, so I changed my process (&
the bot) to use the exact GDB as built from the 7.5 sources that went
with the test suite.
