  $ ./gdbserver :1234 blah
 Process blah created; pid = 16471
 Cannot exec blah: No such file or directory.

 Child exited with status 127
 Killing process(es): 16471
 ../../../../src/binutils-gdb/gdb/gdbserver/linux-low.c:920: A problem internal to GDBserver has been detected.
 kill_wait_lwp: Assertion `res > 0' failed.

GDBserver shouldn't even be trying to kill that process.  GDBserver
kills or detaches from all processes on exit, and due to a missing
mourn_inferior call, GDBserver tries to kill the process that it had
already seen exit.

Tested on x86_64 Fedora 20.  New test included.  I emulated what
Windows outputs by hacking an error call in linux_create_inferior.

gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:
2015-04-07  Pedro Alves  <palves@redhat.com>

	PR server/18081
	* server.c (start_inferior): If the process exits, mourn it.

gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
2015-04-07  Pedro Alves  <palves@redhat.com>

	PR server/18081
	* gdb.server/non-existing-program.exp: New file.

It's much better now, thanks!

For some reason the next test after that now fails and stops the 
testsuite run.

It's probably the setting of spawn_id.  If so, it's the sort of
thing that is only visible on a serial run, and I probably only
tested a parallel run.  I'll take a look.

Thanks,
