+Here are some random last minute notes by this file's original maintainer,
+Mike Stump <mrs@cygnus.com>:

+
+> doesn't work. I got it to work by explicitly setting CXX and CXXFLAGS

+site.exp updated to have right CXXFLAGS and CXX, but not at the FSF yet.
+
+
+ To run the tests, first change to the gcc-2.7.1 directory, then type:
+
+ runtest --tool g++ --srcdir ./testsuite
+
+Here's a brief explanation.
+
+runtest - Is the name used to invoke DejaGnu. If DejaGnu is not
+ install this will be the relative path name for runtest.
+
+--tool - This tells DejaGnu which tool you are testing. It is
+ mainly used to find the testsuite directories for a
+ particular tool when several testsuites are in the
+ same directory. (like the gcc and g++ testsuites)
+
+--srcdir - This points to the top level of the directory
+ containing the sources of the testsuite. This is
+ ./testsuite if you are in the directory that has the
+ testsuite directory.
