I'm pretty sure it's a bug, in the 'acats' part of the test, not the 'gnat' part; it's happened to me repeatedly while developing an upgraded ACATS suite over at https://github.com/simonjwright/ACATS <https://github.com/simonjwright/ACATS>.
(by the way, to run just this part of the suite, it's 'make check-acats').
No doubt the problem is that the suite runs as a shell script, and the C-c doesn't get applied at the right place(s).
I'm not sure that I'm up to what would be a major recasting of the 2,500 or so test programs into a dejagnu framework (would that be likely to fix this issue?).
