Re: [RFA:] PR35293 and testsuite: don't run tests using truncation on targets without support

Not only do I not worry about the maintainance burden, as it's a  
rather mechanical burden as you say, but I think it's a great patch  
and do thank you a lot for your effort! I also think it's nice to  
have gfortran testsuite able to run for these targets, both from the  
point of view of target maintainers (as the Fortran front-end has  
been shown in the past to uncover its share of middle-end or backend  
issues, having different assumptions that the C language family) and  
the Fortran maintainers (because it allows us to test our code  
generation on a wider range of target, thus making us more robust).

OK to commit.

Thanks a lot, again. Do you have any idea of the number of testsuite  
failures still there after your patch?

PS: I won't review your other patch but will let Jerry or Thomas do  
it, as they're the experts on that I/O code.
