+This is a collection of tests for GCC. For further information about
+the C testsuite, see README.gcc.
+
+The driver that runs this testsuite is called DejaGnu and you will
+need a current DejaGnu snapshot, which is available from
+ftp://gcc.gnu.org/pub/gcc/infrastructure, for example.
+
+These tests are included "as is". If any of them fails, do not report
+a bug. Bug reports for DejaGnu can go to bug-dejagnu@gnu.org.
+Discussion and comments about this testsuite should be sent to
+gcc@gcc.gnu.org; additions and changes to should go to sent to
+gcc-patches@gcc.gnu.org.
+
+The entire testsuite is invoked by `make check` at the top level of
+the GCC tree. `make check-g++` runs the C++ testsuite only.
+
+STRUCTURE OF THE G++ TESTSUITE

+
+Finally, some random last minute notes by Mike Stump <mrs@cygnus.com>, on
+how to run tests (in the GCC 2.7 era):
+
+ runtest --tool g++ --srcdir ./testsuite
+
+where
+
+ runtest Is the name used to invoke DejaGnu. If DejaGnu is not
+ install this will be the relative path name for runtest.
+
+ --tool This tells DejaGnu which tool you are testing. It is
+ mainly used to find the testsuite directories for a
+ particular tool when several testsuites are in the
+ same directory. (like the gcc and g++ testsuites)
+
+ --srcdir This points to the top level of the directory
+ containing the sources of the testsuite. This is
+ ./testsuite if you are in the directory that has the
+ testsuite directory.
