Hmmm, I don't have a good baseline stored to compare this to, but, from
memory, this looks worse than is was a few weeks ago...  The failure count
should be much lower currently, due to both the fix that forced unbuffered
stdout on Cygwin, and the skip __main fix.

Oh, I'm running the testsuite too, and I'm getting several crashes
like these, which I had never seen before:

This is with stock gcc and binutils.  Looks like something
broke recently on the binutils/bfd side...

We're doing a small adjustment that I should have made myself,
due to new core expectations, so I don't think we don't need to
bother Christopher with this one.

OK.  Please check it in.

Thanks!
