[Bug testsuite/36443] [4.3/4.4 Regression]: HOSTCC doesn't work with unstalled gcc



------- Comment #7 from mmitchel at gcc dot gnu dot org  2008-06-06 22:59 -------
We set GCC_EXEC_PREFIX when testing in-tree GCC because we want the GCC we're
testing to search the right paths.

Note that in creating site.exp, we do:

        @echo "set GCC_EXEC_PREFIX \"$(libdir)/gcc/\"" >> ./tmp0

If I understand correctly, the issue in:

http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2006-12/msg01493.html

may be that DejaGNU wants to compile testglue, and therefore needs
GCC_EXEC_PREFIX set at that point, since testglue is of course built with the
compiler being tested.

Maybe HOSTCC should be "GCC_EXEC_PREFIX= gcc"?
