That leaves us with no test of the 'p' command, and no test of reading
a register.
Given how much you're changing accessing the registers you
should still have a basic test by the end.
How does this test work on S390 where 'info registers' shows
NIP but 'p $pc' works but 'p $nip' doesn't?
I assume gdb also has some concept of a 'pc' at it's end?
