The tests worked fine on the 22nd July, but started to fail before the 
3rd of August.

The matching part in $DEJAGNU is:

case "$target_triplet" in {
...
   { "sh-unknown-elf" } {
       set target_list { "sh-hms-sim{,-m4/-ml}" }
       set board_info(sh-hms-sim,ldscript) "-Wl,--defsym,_stack=0x1ff000"
       set board_info(sh-hms-sim,sim,options) "-m 21"
       set board_info(sh-hms-sim/-m4/-ml,ldscript) 
"-Wl,--defsym,_stack=0x1ff000"
       set board_info(sh-hms-sim/-m4/-ml,sim,options) "-m 21"
   }

The matching file in the baseboards directory starts with:

# This is a list of toolchains that are supported on this board.
set_board_info target_install {sh-hms}

# Load the generic configuration for this board. This will define a basic
# set of routines needed by the tool to communicate with the board.
load_generic_config "sim"

# basic-sim.exp is a basic description for the standard Cygnus simulator.
load_base_board_description "basic-sim"

and then goes on to define various settings for the simulator, gcc, the 
linker and gdb.
