fix for PR gdb/15995
This patch fixes PR gdb/15995. The bug here is that gdb's printf command does not flush the output stream. This makes a printf that is not newline-terminated interleave incorrectly with other forms of output, such as that generated via a call to an external program using "shell". I note that the "output" command already does this flushing. The fix is to call gdb_flush in printf_command. Built and regtested on x86-64 Fedora 18. New test case included. PR gdb/15995: * printcmd.c (printcmd): Call gdb_flush. * gdb.base/printcmds.exp (test_printf): Test printf flushing.
