Yes:
https://gcc.gnu.org/git/?p=gcc.git;a=blob;f=libstdc%2B%2B-v3/testsuite/lib/prune.exp;h=70ff302288ed4fc04755168ee2f3fa332186dd8d;hb=HEAD#l31
And indeed, returning ::sunupported::message from there works
perfectly, as all the earlier FAIL results are replaced by that
string. Thanks!
Arsen, see you back on IRC, I have an alternative to your
target-utils.exp changes that fixes it.

The top level file is:
https://gcc.gnu.org/git/?p=gcc.git;a=blob;f=libstdc%2B%2B-v3/testsuite/libstdc%2B%2B-dg/conformance.exp;h=366a22e9a3e6ef5f8169a6d6b6e0cedc2b9c708c;hb=HEAD
Which includes other files from:
https://gcc.gnu.org/git/?p=gcc.git;a=tree;f=libstdc%2B%2B-v3/testsuite/lib;h=8355315188041a63d22bc53122ca1cbb30e7a1a2;hb=HEAD

Yes, we do already have such an effective target, but the idea was to
avoid having to add the selector to 2000+ files. What we want is that
any test which exits with a specific error will get UNSUPPORTED
automatically, without having to modify the test itself.
And by doing it in libstdc++-dg-prune that works perfectly, thanks again.
