ah, thanks, i missed the projects using newer automake & DEJATOOL and
passing --tool to runtest directly rather than through site.exp. i
had expected site.exp so people could run `runtest` manually, but i
guess that's not really a common or supported flow. people only run
`make check` and such and never get lower.
i'm still stuck in the old Makefile.in world -- it still feels cutting
edge that binutils/gdb is using Makefile.am at all as i thought it'd
never happen ;).
