You can't just add options like this; they may not work with other options passed by the testsuite framework.  Instead, you should a suitable entry to lib/target-supports.exp in the table starting "foreach { armfunc armflag armdefs } {" that tests whether the options can be safely added, and then use dg-require-effective-target and dg-add-options for your new set of options.

Please add one :)
