+
+<p>Before you install egcs, you might wish to run the egcs testsuite; this
+step is optional and may require you to download additional software.
+
+<p>First, you must have downloaded the egcs testsuites; the full distribution
+contains testsuites. If you downloaded the "core" compiler plus any front
+ends, then you do not have the testsuites. You can download the testsuites
+from the same site where you downloaded the core distribution and language
+front ends.
+
+<p>Second, you must have a new version of dejagnu on your system; dejagnu-1.3
+will not work. We have made a
+<a href="ftp://ftp.cygnus.com/pub/egcs/infrastructure/dejagnu-971028.tar.gz">
+dejagnu snapshot</a> available in ftp.cygnus.com:/pub/egcs/infrastructure until
+a new version of dejagnu can be released.
+
+<p>Assuming you've got the testsuites unpacked and have installed an appropriate
+dejagnu, you can run the testsuite with "cd <i>objdir</i>; make -k check".
+This may take a long time. Go get some lunch.
+
+<p>The testing process will try to test as many components in the egcs
+distrubution as possible, including the C, C++ and Fortran compiler as
+well as the C++ runtime libraries.
