Failed to compile in newlib testsuite

[Brian.Kieft]

I'm attempting to run the testsuite provided with newlib 1.11.0 and am running
into a couple of problems. I've compiled and installed newlib in a Cygwin shell
for a powerpc-unknown-elf target. The install went fine and I've attempted  a
make check, runtest, etc and seem to get errors every time. I've set my DEJAGNU
environment variable to the following site.exp file:

# Make sure we look in the right place for the board description files.
if ![info exists boards_dir] {
    set boards_dir {}
}
lappend boards_dir "/usr/share/dejagnu/baseboards"
verbose "Global Config File: target_triplet is $target_triplet" 2
global target_list
case "$target_triplet" in {
    { "native" } {
       set target_list "unix"
       }
    { "powerpc-*elf" } {
    set target_list "powerpc-sim"
    }
   
 }


I then go to the /usr/local/src/newlib-1.11.0/newlib directory and configure it
for a powerpc-unknown-elf. Following that I do a make site.exp and a local
site.exp file is created. I then attempt a runtest and get the following:

Any idea what I'm missing here? Is this something that needs to run on the
target? This is the first time I've attempted using dejaGNU to run a testsuite
so  I apologize for any obvious stupidity. Thanks in advance,

Brian
