My advice:
1. Wait until GCC 3.1 is released.
2. Roughly immediately afterwards, Something will happen.
3. Then wait until everyone decides what they think of Something.
If I win, your issue will be moot.
If I lose, fix things -- either as you suggest or by making the
DejaGNU code put things in places that are uniquified better.
And, no, I'm not saying anything more than that until 3.1 is out. :-)
