I've added more than one testcase to gcc.dg and I (try to) follow the
conventions, ergo your assertion is wrong. :-) See for example

Since the PR is already supposed to be in the testcase, I think it makes sense
to add one more bit of information.

The problem with Wikis is that everyone seems to think you don't need to read
