qemu-ppc: QEMU: Terminated via GDBstub
I've tested from a clean checkout with the following commands:
./configure --target-list=ppc-linux-user
make -j$(nproc) all
make check-tcg
It's odd this config isn't caught by our CI.

$(call skip-test, "gdbstub test $*", "need working gdb with $(patsubst

Unfortunately, gdb is not installed in any container.
At least we caught something with this bug, which is great :).
