If you use an xfail command within a dg-do, it has no effect. E.g this generic
testcase will FAIL rather than XFAIL:
/* { dg-do preprocess { xfail *-*-* } } */
#error intentional failure!
int main(void)
{
return 0;
}
Right now, none of the ~100 testcases in the testsuite using this idiom are
honoring it. So they're either now passing or unnecessarily cluttering up
testsuite results.
