With a few little tweaks, all these tests pass.  Thanks muchly
for getting started with this aspect.

I suspect that the great deal of commonality amongst the per-test .exp
files could be corrected by having one or two master .exp files that
iterate along a group of .stp's.  dejagnu has globbing operators for
just such use.  Those .stp scripts that perform their own assessment
of pass/failure, which is most of them, could simply be generically
asserted to return "... pass ...", thus require no per-test .exp code
whatsoever.
