I'm sorry for invalidating those assumptions. Indeed, before my recent
changes, all tests for the same testcase name were run serially by the same
job. If we wanted to preserve that property, we could e.g. store the
results of gcc_parallel_test_run_p in some tcl array with testcase as the
key, and after the
if { $gcc_runtest_parallelize_enable == 0 } {
return 1
}
test add a test if we've been asked about a particular testcase already,
just return what we've returned before. Perhaps accompany that with
lowering the granularity (e.g. from 10 to 5).
