To expand a little.

Dejagnu is included in the nightly shots (gdb+dejagnu.tar.gz,...) or as
a separate file. Alternativly, you can check it out, along with GDB,
vis:

	cvs -z9 -d :pserver:anoncvs@anoncvs.cygnus.com:/cvs/src co gdb dejangu

This ensures that the dejagnu you test GDB with is the same one that
everyone else is using.

PS: which reminds me, now that nightly snapshots are working (....) I
need to start a discussion on what the snapshots should contain.
