Stan,
We need this board file to ensure gdb testsuite works properly in 'remote 
host'.  Existing test cases have some flaws on 'remote host', and it is also 
useful to verify new test case works well in 'remote host'.

We have a line of explanation in the comment, is it clear enough?

# This file is a dejagnu "board file" and is used to run the testsuite
# against local host, in remote host mode.
