It was pointed out that the recently added test
gdb.fortran/ptype-on-functions.exp fails on older versions of
gfortran. This is because the ABI for passing string lengths changed
from a 4-byte to 8-byte value (on some targets).
This change is documented here:
https://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-8/changes.html.
Character variables longer than HUGE(0) elements are now possible on
64-bit targets. Note that this changes the procedure call ABI for
all procedures with character arguments on 64-bit targets, as the
type of the hidden character length argument has changed. The hidden
character length argument is now of type INTEGER(C_SIZE_T).
This commit just relaxes the pattern to accept any size of integer for
the string length argument.
