Never mind. Looks like I found the issue - with just trial and error and
no idea of how this stuff works.
The torture-{init,finish} needs to be in riscv.exp not rvv.exp
Running full tests now.

Thanks!
Marginally related.  I was able to bisect the "hang" when 3-staging the 
trunk on RISC-V with qemu user mode emulation.

So it wasn't actually hanging, but after the introduction of segment 
intrinsics the compilation time for insn-emit explodes -- previously I 
could do a full 3-stage bootstrap, build the glibc & the kernel, then 
test c/c++/fortran in ~10 hours.

Now just building insn-emit.o alone takes ~10 hours in that environment. 
 I suspect (but have not yet confirmed) that we should see a huge 
compile-time spike in cross builds as well, though obviously it won't be 
as bad since we're not using qemu emulation.

Clearly something isn't scaling well.  I don't know if we've got a crazy 
large function in there, a crazy number of functions or something that's 
just triggering a compile-time scaling problem.  Whatever it is, we 
probably need to address it.
