[patch] endianness fixes for the ld testsuite

Matt Hiller hiller@redhat.com
Wed Feb 28 17:55:00 GMT 2001 
	This version of the patch fixes the problems in
testsuite/lib/ld-lib.exp that Nick pointed out earlier.

2001-02-28  Matt Hiller  <hiller@redhat.com>

	* testsuite/ld-scripts/crossref.exp: Initialize flags to
	[big_or_little_endian].
	* testsuite/ld-undefined/undefined.exp: Ditto, and include $flags
	in ld invocations.
	* testsuite/lib/ld-lib.exp (big_or_little_endian): Recognize
	-EB, -eb, -EL and -el.
	(is_endian_output_format): New function.
	(default_ld_link): Set flags to [big_or_little_endian] only if
	ld is being invoked such that the output format being used is
        of known endianness.
	(default_ld_simple_link): Ditto.
