But is it working for testing cross-compilers where programs for the target need to be run on a simulator, or on an embedded board, or ...? And does it generate .sum files in the Dejagnu format for the use of the automated regression testers (this point is critical to get much of the benefit of the testing, a sh script can always be committed first then converted to a Dejagnu harness later to take advantage of all the support Dejagnu has for testing cross-compilers)? Does your test setup support additionally "ordinary" testsuite directories for gradually accumulating tests in the style of gcc.c-torture/{compile,execute} (test compilation / execution works with multiple optimization options) or gcc.dg (test that error/warning messages are as expected)? There are many such tests that Kenner has posted to the lists over the years (for back-end bugs shown up by Ada testcases) that should be gathered into the testsuite.
