Google was not my friend ...
I searched for "dg-error gcc tests" and near the top was a link
to the internals manual. But it was some random copy covering 3.4
which did not include the new-ish "Test-Directives" mode. I didn't
notice that at first.
It might be good to link to
http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gccint/Testsuites.html
in some of the places I mentioned.
On the other hand, http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gccint/Testsuites.html
doesn't mention how to run the testsuite. Perhaps there should be a
link to http://gcc.gnu.org/install/test.html from the internals
manual.
