[issue17772] test_gdb doesn't detect a gdb built with python3.3 (or higher)

[Dave Malcolm]

Dave Malcolm added the comment:

I didn't know that gdb supported embedding Python 3.   Is this a set of patches you're applying downstream, or an official gdb feature?

If so, it means everyone coding to the gdb API needs to somehow make their FOO-gdb.py files be Python 3-compatible.  Currently the Tools/gdb/libpython.py is Python 2 compatible, and I'm sure there are going to be incompatibilities with python 3.
