  The testcase gdb.base/history-duplicates.exp checks the interaction 
between "set history remove-duplicates" and scrolling back through 
command history with ^P, thus it only makes sense if readline support is 
present.  I've copied the test that currently appears in readline.exp 
and other places.  OK to commit?

Yes, patch is OK.

For the record, there is no fails with board file local-remote-host
(which has tty),

$ make check RUNTESTFLAGS="--host_board=local-remote-host --target_board=local-remote-host  history-duplicates.exp"

but there are some fails with local-remote-host-notty (readline is
disabled due to lack of tty),
