Hi Chung-Lin,

 No worries.

 That is intentional.  The libgomp.exp test driver is generic and can be 
invoked standalone (e.g. with `contrib/test_installed'), in which case the 
user will decide with `runtest' options whether to use a compiler pointed 
at explicitly or to fall back to `[find_gcc]'.

 OTOH `make check' is tied to the build tree and I think it ought to use 
the same compiler, there's no point in using any compiler search logic.

 The only uncertainty was about libgomp-test-support.exp.  Since it's 
generated I concluded it could be treated as tied to the build tree, 
however your use case has served as a counter example, so I have backed 
out my change as I have come up with a change that is equally good for my 
purpose and does not cause you and possibly other people trouble.

> That said, I don't have anything further against this patch. Okay for me.

 Great, thanks for verifying my proposal.

 Well, the in-tree compiler is $(CC), $(CXX), etc., as embedded in the 
Makefile structure, and I don't think you can guess it in DejaGNU without 
referring to those `make' variables.

 I'll post an updated series; it has passed my testing.
