further information please check README.gcc and README.g++, though the
latter may not be up-to-date any more.
The driver that runs this testsuite is called DejaGnu and you will
need a current DejaGnu snapshot, which is available from
-ftp://egcs.cygnus.com/pub/egcs/infrastructure, for example.

Most of these tests were originally developed and/or collected by
-Cygnus Support, but these days many are being added by the EGCS
+Cygnus Solutions, but these days many are being added by the GCC
developers.
These tests are included "as is". If any of them fails, do not report
a bug. Bug reports for DejaGnu can go to bug-dejagnu@prep.ai.mit.edu.

+g++.old-deja uses a fixed driver for all g++ tests based on the old
+DejaGnu drivers. But just because its old, doesn't mean its redundant!
+Tests that want to use the normal dg.exp driver can be put in g++.dg instead.
+This may be required for platform-specific tests, or tests with other
+special requirements.
