Hi,
This patch is a follow-up of the following discussions:
<https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2014-12/msg00421.html>
<https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2014-12/msg01293.html>
input_interrupt is currently emiting non-printable characters, which
is confusing the dg-extract-results.sh script. This is obviously not
a good thing, and, by following Pedro's advices here:
<https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2014-12/msg01320.html>
I adapted the function to print "client connection closed" when it
receives a NUL character, or use the "isprint" function to decide how
to print the received char. I tested it by running the testcases that
were printing the non-printable chars before:
gdb.base/gdb-sigterm.exp
gdb.threads/non-ldr-exc-1.exp
gdb.threads/non-ldr-exc-2.exp
gdb.threads/non-ldr-exc-3.exp
gdb.threads/non-ldr-exc-4.exp
gdb.threads/thread-execl.exp
and confirming that they print the right message. I tried a bit to
come up with a testcase for this, but failed, and since I did not want
to spend too much time on it, I'm sending the patch anyway.
Comments are welcome, as usual.

* remote-utils.c: Include ctype.h.
(input_interrupt): Explicitly handle the case when the char
received is the NUL byte. Improve the printing of non-ASCII
characters.
