digitalmars.D - Need help with failing dmd testsuite on NixOS

Hello,

running the dmd testsuite for the package build on NixOS fails 
with some gdb tests.
It looks like it is a problem with gdb used in the system. The 
breakpoint setting doesn't seem to work.
I thought that maybe somebody has some experience with this and 
knows what's going on.

Here is the failing output of one of the testcases:

  ... runnable/gdb14225.d            -g -fPIC ()
Test runnable/gdb14225.d failed.  The logged output:

-g -fPIC  -odtest_results/runnable

Wow, pretty much everything D-related updated. Thanks! For anyone 
interested, his PR is here: 
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/115265

Whatever happened, it is after version 2.084.0. I didn't have to 
disable those gdb tests when I tried to update DMD to that 
version (it's Tilix that failed, not DMD itself). PR: 
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/99392. Sorry, that's 
everything I know :(.
