Yes but we also need to build the dummy milli.a file.  The binutils testsuite
runs before the ld testsuite, so I don't think we can use the file generated
in the ld testsuite.

There's only a couple of tests in the binutils testsuite that fail because of
this issue.  Maybe I could xfail them if the host isn't hppa*64*-*-hpux* and the
target is hppa*64*-*-hpux*?
