I was hoping that I would have some time to look at the patch, but I don't think it's going to happen this week. But I just LOVE the idea of it. In fact, I have been doing my own testing by setting DEJAGNU=... to the board file in the source directory itself, rather than make a copy. The only thing I needed to do was create a boards directory inside the sources which was less than ideal. So, I'm all for your enhancement. Thanks for doing this! -- Joel
