Scott,

To expand on what I suspect Fernando is doing, he probably has built a
``--target=arm-elf'' tool-chain (compiler, linker, debugger) and is then
testing it a dejagnu entry like:

    { "arm-*elf" } {
       set target_list "arm-sim/-mlittle-endian"
    }

(along with a few extra's for remote boards).  This checks both big and
little endian targets without any need to own real hardware.

	enjoy,
		Andrew
