Agreed; I don't want to have to carry a copy this code in my jit.exp;
it's merely short-term expediency for the sake of getting my testsuite
working within gcc's larger testsuite (feature freeze for gcc 5 is just
a few weeks away, so I didn't want to gate my changes on a DG release).

That seems to me like a good approach - but I'm relatively unfamiliar
with DG, expect and tcl, so take my opinion with a suitably large pinch
of salt :)

BTW, I'm curious about to what extent others are using (A) host_execute,
and (B) the dejagnu.h header (my testsuite uses both).

Thanks
Dave
