Oh, I didn't realize that these were significantly separate
in terms of what code you touch to backport them.
I believe some of the relevant testcases in 4.x use
dg-require-effective-target and others use selector expressions. It
would be better if I didn't have to rewrite half of the tests' dg-
commands when backporting them. So my preference is to have both
idioms available in 3.4.
