Re: PATCH to g++.dg support code

Hmm, having .exp in the same directory as the .C is not a requirement
from DejaGnu part. I have always been mystified by the way the
testsuites are currently un-uniformly organized.

Completely agreed.

Please do so.  Once a time the V3 testsuite did that.  It even used to
create subdirectories mirroring the categories when running.
