I agree that catching this in scan-assembler test is hard, but guality test
would catch this.  It is true that some guality tests (mostly the ones that
test behaviour of optimized code, which differs a lot between different
architectures) have known FAILs (or known XFAILs), because the target,
compilation options and gdb version matrix is too large to catch all cases.
But, if one just looks at test_summary output before/after a change,
one can detect regressions and fix them.  Perhaps in some cases you could
just limit to -O0 guality if it is something you want to just check if
the debug info is represented properly and don't need to test
-fvar-tracking-assignments etc. handling - you can just dg-skip-if the tests
except for -O0 etc.
Similarly, it shouldn't be hard to add tcl function to check for gdb
version, and limit some tests only to a particular version of gdb or newer.
