Maybe a comment should be added to the test case

I think we have a couple issues now that are resolved if we step
forward to a newer version of dejagnu.

Given dejagnu-1.6 was recently released, should we just bite the
bullet and ask everyone to step forward?

I'm all for that.  I've recently added s390 test cases that
require Dejagnu 1.6.  Apart from the discussed problem with
spec-options.c, there are a number of Power (and some other
target) test cases that do not work properly with older Dejagnu
version but would finally work (read: actually test something) if
the new version were required.
FWIW, Fedora 24 uses dejagnu-1.6.  Not sure about other distributions.
