Right. This is wierd. The irix6 pruning text has been in dejagnu for
years, but this warning is new because the -mabi=32 multilib stuff was
just recently added. There must have been some other -mabi=32 support
at some point which this pattern was supposed to match?

Ok then I won't change any other diagnostics except irix6. What I'll
do is put a pattern in gcc/testsuite/lib/prune.exp for the new message
text and run a multilib testsuite pass to see if it works. If it
does, I'll pass it upstream into dejagnu. My irix6 box is down with a
hardware failure, so it'll be a little while.
