Hmm, I'm getting pretty standard results with a clean
build:

    # of expected passes            12553
    # of unexpected failures        25
    # of unexpected successes       1
    # of expected failures          40
    # of known failures             57
    # of unresolved testcases       1
    # of untested testcases         8
    # of unsupported tests          16

gdb version  6.8.50.20080514-cvs

I also was able to start GDB and debug GDB with it, so it's
probably
a problem on your side.
