In gdb.log, I see the below. Note that the test suite tries to run
the program with a direct "run" command, with no 'target sim'. I
think you need to write an appropriate DejaGnu configuration file for
your target. I believe there are existing files included with DejaGnu
that might be appropriate for you to model yours on, with names ending
in "-sim", or something like that.
