Does your dejagnu contain commit 5256bd82343000c76bc0e48139003f90b6184347 Author: H.J. Lu <hjl.to...@gmail.com> Date: Thu Feb 26 17:53:48 2015 +1100 * lib/target.exp (default_target_compile): Prepend multilib_flags, instead of appending it. Some GCC testcases need explicit GCC options to properly run. For example gcc.target/i386/pr32219-1.c has -fpie specified explicitly: /* { dg-options "-O2 -fpie" } */ But with multlib, eg: make check-gcc RUNTESTFLAGS="--target_board='unix{-fpic}'" -fpic is appended to the command line options, which overrides the command line options specified by dg-options. multlib flags should be placed at the beginning of the command line options, not at the end. This patch updates default_target_compile to prepend multilib_flags, instead of appending it. -- H.J.
