I'm getting multiple test_gdb failures on a new (XUbuntu 13.04) system:

======================================================================
FAIL: test_basic_command (test.test_gdb.PyLocalsTests)
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/antoine/cpython/33/Lib/test/test_gdb.py", line 822, in test_basic_command
    cmds_after_breakpoint=['py-locals'])
  File "/home/antoine/cpython/33/Lib/test/test_gdb.py", line 170, in get_stack_trace
    self.assertEqual(err, '')
AssertionError: 'warning: no loadable sections found in added symbol-file system-supplied DSO at [truncated]... != ''
- warning: no loadable sections found in added symbol-file system-supplied DSO at 0x7ffff7ffa000

(all test methods produce the same error)

I guess that warning needs to be added to all the others in test_gdb around line 150...

(if anyone knows why that warning appears, by the way, I'll be glad to hear about it :-))

Possibly this issue: Possibly this issue: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=312011

I'm seeing tons of this on Ubuntu 13.04.
