I conclude that DejaGNU currently does not seem to be able to do all tests necessary for testing GNU Pascal.
Then you must not have understood dejagnu yet. Because you can do whatever you want within the confines of dejagnu, you are not limited in any way. This lack of any limitation translates into you can do anything you want.
I think you may have meant that you cannot reuse the existing gcc or g++ testsuite framework wholesale with no changes.
Please note that the mail you replied to was resent by mistake last Friday. The contents of the mail are over 3 years old (as you quoted). Currently, we do not dejagnu, but our own test suite, and it's working fine. (If you want to know what exactly Peter (who actually wrote the mail) meant, you can read it up in the archive at http://fjf.gnu.de/crystal/gpc/en/.)
