I think Dan J. and I basically agreed that actually the verbose output
seen on HP-UX is undesirable. So we should probably fix the testsuite
instead. I think that makes the second chunck of the patch
unecessary. Oh, and I really think you should check for *-*-linux*
instead of *-pc-linux*.
That said I'd like to see these tests enabled on *-*-openbsd3.9 and up
too. Feel free to add those. If you don't I'll consider it to be an
obvious patch once you've committed the Linux stuff.
