Subject: [rfa/doco] Test Suite: build != host
Date: Thu, 19 Aug 2004 09:48:00 -0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4124776A.nailCD81LG97@mindspring.com> (raw)
This patch documents that the gdb test suite is supported with
build != host, but that some test scripts do not work and
will return UNRESOLVED if build != host.
I don't know if "UNRESOLVED" needs some kind of @foo{...}
markup.
Testing: rebuilt gdb doco, it looked okay.
Okay to commit?
Michael
