At the risk of stating the obvious, I think this is wider than just
Solaris and IRIX. Build-directory testing is broken for similarly-
organised *-linux-gnu configurations too. I think it's less likely
to be noticed there because gcc is the system compiler, and so it's
highly likely that the standard library directories will contain a
version of libgcc.so.1. In those circumstances, executables that
use the non-default multilibs will usually load OK, but they'll be
using the system libgcc.so.1, not the newly-built libgcc. This
kind-of invalidates the results.
I see this on mips64-linux-gnu, for example. Test results for the
non-default multilibs are great, but they're using the system DSO
(which is from gcc 3.4, as it happens), not the newly-built one.
