Grumble.  It would be Real Nice if the remaining -v3 references
could go, too.  Having to guess how to invoke the testsuite
is complicating my build-and-test-any-version-of-gcc script
(http://kegel.com/crosstool).  I had been testing for the existence
of the libstdc++ and libstdc++-v3 directories, and invoking
the test by the same name.   (I'm invoking runtest directly
rather than 'make check'.  Guess I'm paying for that now, but
invoking it directly makes it a lot easier to figure out how
options get passed to runtest :-)
