Since you committed this patch, I've noticed errors on AArch4 and ARM
(but that's probably true on other targets as well):

Running /XXX/ld/testsuite/ld-elf/elf.exp ...
ERROR: arm-linux-gnueabi-cc does not exist

So it looks like these tests require a C compiler, rather than being
executed natively?
