I wasn't aware of any. Indeed, one of my last steps before submitting
the patchset was to fix problems that had come up in embedded ports,
with gcc_adjust_linker_flags and corresponding changes to outputs.exp
itself.

Thanks. Yeah, H-P observed and submitted a similar report that made me
wonder about empty arguments being passed to GCC. Jeff's report
confirms the suspicion. See how there are a couple of {}s after -msim
in the "Executing on host" line, that in the "spawn" line are completely
invisible, only suggested by the extra whitespace. That was not quite
visible in H-P's report, but Jeff's makes it clear.
I suppose this means there are consecutive blanks in e.g. board's
ldflags, and the split function is turning each consecutive pair of
blanks into an empty argument. I'm testing a fix (kludge?) in
