My decision is: build != host is a supported way to run the
test suite. However, individual test scripts can drop out with
UNSUPPORTED if they want, with this code:
if { [is_remote host] } {
unresolved "This test script does not work on a remote host."
return -1
}
The dejagnu documentation for UNRESOLVED says:
This message is also used for any test that requires human
intervention because it is beyond the abilities of the testing
framework.
I will write a doco patch for build != host and post it for
Eli's review.
