I guess we'll just patch our local c-torture then.
I actually think it would be fine to use a dg-requires or a #ifdef in this test. dg-requires is probably better but I'm not sure offhand whether it works in the c-torture/execute directory. As Joseph says, other tests will have to be changed as well, but that isn't a reason not to fix this test. Ian
