--- Comment #1 from Xi Ruoyao <xry111 at gcc dot gnu.org> ---
[Phew, why do we allow empty reports? Just mishit "enter" and then this.]
The vect_* target selectors are evaluated with the options in
DEFAULT_VECTCFLAGS in effect, but these options are not automatically passed to
tests out of the vect directories. This causes test failures to show up here
and there.
To me using vect_* target selectors out of vect directories is simply wrong.
Instead of forcing the maintainers to fix these failures one by one, target by
target, we should just move the tests into vect directories, or adjust them not
to rely on vect_* target selectors. And we should make a policy to disallow
using { target vect_* } in tests out of vect directories.
