I think so.  I actually got an executable which
I could run but DejaGNU didn't know how to. 
So that's half the battle. ;)

===============================
PASS: gcc.c-torture/execute/builtins/memset-chk.c compilation,  -O3 
-fomit-frame-pointer -funroll-loops
core_find_mapping() - access to unmaped address, attach a default map to 
handle this - addr=0x7c9c60 nr_bytes=0x4 processor=0x40017008 cia=0x14980

FAIL: gcc.c-torture/execute/builtins/memset-chk.c execution,  -O3 
-fomit-frame-pointer -funroll-loops
===============================

But when I run it by hand...

$ psim-4.9 ./memset-chk.x5

*** EXIT code 0

How can I see what is invoked for the simulator run? 

FWIW I just want to run the external script "psim-4.9" which takes
care of everything.  Clearly "setup_sim psim4.9" isn't the right thing.
And the "set_board_info sim "psim-4.9" isn't working either. :(

I have attached rtems-powerpc-sim.exp in case you can spot
something small and stupid.  I am very very close.

Is there an easy way to skip to the executable tests?
I am tired of watching the compile only ones pass. :-D

That's a good option.  I added it and hope that Fedora's DejaGNU
knows it.

I don't know that we will need this for RTEMS.  We have all of
POSIX 1003.1b except processes, shared memory, and memory
mapping.  You can turn it all of if you like and go with a pSOS+
like "Classic API".  But for testing, we can build with everything
enabled. the Ada run-time expects it anyway.

That sounds quite important as well.

I feel we will have results posted soon. :D
