Huh? What about dg-additional-sources, which seems to be exactly what
you need and is even documented in sourcebuild.texi ;-)

I wouldn't go that way unless absolutely necessary: unless you need
something from gcc inline assembly, this makes the testcase only harder
to read.

I believe you are, but it's admittedly hard finding your way around in
the testsuite once you leave the trodden paths.

I'd hope so. E.g. you get the usual PASS and FAIL lines in gcc.sum for
free by using the standard infrastructure instead of cooking up your
own.
