These patches allow multi-fork.exp to pass on x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, most of

Thanks, I'd been thinking about that...

Some other problems I noticed, but did not fix:

The "follow child, print pids" test is victim of a race condition; sometimes
the "$pid done" printout from the inferior will be interleaved with the GDB
output, causing expect to mark the test as a failure.

delete-fork really ought to call waitpid after deleting the fork; otherwise
the process lives on as a zombie.

That's fine with me too.
