Remove forgotten relic of ABI crash risk averse overloaded method change.
| michael@0 | 1 | # Apparently, there's simply no way to ask GDB to exit with a non-zero |
| michael@0 | 2 | # status when the script run with the --eval-command option fails. Thus, if |
| michael@0 | 3 | # we have --eval-command run prolog.py directly, syntax errors there will |
| michael@0 | 4 | # lead GDB to exit with no indication anything went wrong. |
| michael@0 | 5 | # |
| michael@0 | 6 | # To avert that, we use this very small launcher script to run prolog.py |
| michael@0 | 7 | # and catch errors. |

| michael@0 | 9 | # Remember, errors in this file will cause spurious passes, so keep this as |
| michael@0 | 10 | # simple as possible! |
