The discovery of bug#47382
(<URL:https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=47382>) has led to
follow-on effects and efforts to resolve this issue have led to an
interesting question: how are existing projects communicating
build/host/target triplets to their DejaGnu testsuites and would adding
this information to Automake-generated site.exp files be useful?
I am asking this now because the next DejaGnu 1.6.3 release candidate is
now expected to use EXTRA_DEJAGNU_SITE_CONFIG to insert this information
into its own site.exp file and I am considering working the feature into
an upstream Automake patch to add
build_triplet/host_triplet/target_triplet to all Automake-generated
site.exp files at some unknown future date.
