+	* gdb.base/watchpoint.c (main): Prompt before calling read().
+	* gdb.base/watchpoint.exp (test_watchpoint_triggered_in_syscall):
+	Revise accordingly.  Remove cruft about sending "123" several
+	times, until it gets noticed.  Clean up the "print buf[0]" stuff
+	so that it passes or fails, and waits for prompts in the usual way.
