dejagnu will take a compiler from your PATH if there isn't one in the 
current directory.  So you can do something like this

     export PATH=...
     mkdir testdir
     cd testdir
     ../gcc/configure
     make configure-gcc
     make check-gcc

If you want to test something else, then you will need to make other 
configure-* targets, e.g. configure-target-libjava if you want to do 
make check-target-libjava.
