Testing Framework Bugs?

Hello gcc hackers

Anyone else seen this? Apologies if it's a known phenomenon.

While running the tests I have noticed some false negatives
for example:-

FAIL: gcc.dg/sequence-pt-1.c sequence point warning (test for warnings, line 66)
FAIL: gcc.dg/sequence-pt-1.c (test for excess errors)

When I look at the log file, I can see where the problem is:-

/usr/src/gcc-3.2/gcc/testsuite/gcc.dg/sequence-pt-1.c:65: warning: operation on `a' may be undefined
/usr/src/gcc-3.2/gcc/testsuite/gcc.dg/sequ

See how the last line is chomped?

When I run the test from the command line, I get the expected output.

This is i686-pc-linux-gnu with latest stable tools, glibc, kernel etc.
tcl, expect and cvs version of dejagnu.

Anyone have any insight to this? Is my setup broken? If so, what may be
the cause?

Thanks
Greg
