The answer to that is that DejaGnu should provide hooks that testsuites can use to classify diagnostics. Then GCC would provide such hooks saying what's a warning or error, gfortran.exp would provide different hooks, and without hooks from a testsuite DejaGnu could stay compatible with the old behavior. -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=25241
