I've been running the testsuite on my macOS, on which

rewrite a DejaGNU replacement accepting the same

attempts on this?
CodeSourcery wrote one called qmtest, but there apparently hasn't been
any work done on it in a while. Joseph Myers indirectly referred to it.
You can find a copy here

It used to be possible to run the gcc testsuite using qmtest, but I
don't know the current status. I do see that there is still a
qmtest-g++ makefile rule for running the G++ testsuite via qmtest
though. You could try that and see if it still works.
There is so much stuff that depends on dejagnu that replacing it will be
difficult.
