Some ~900 g++ tests need libstdc++ to successfully link/run and g77 needs(?)
libf2c libraries.
Reporting test results where libraries are missing as `unresolved' or
`unsupported' would cut down the noise in these cases.
I suggest:
Where tests need libraries that should have been built, explicitly
report the library missing once and enhance the dejagnu framework
to report linkage or execution failures of the tests as `unresolved'
or `unsupported' and or suppress the linkage attempt.
