Adding an emulation will break the test on mips-sgi-irix6, which uses different emulation names (and doesn't include the "traditional" emulations). jalbal used to pass on IRIX 6. Not that I much care about the IRIX test results. They're too much a mess right now to be useful. -- Daniel Jacobowitz CodeSourcery, LLC
