llvm dev - Mar 2013 - [LLVMdev] Disabling ExecutionEngine tests for Hexagon

This was just a temporary change to see how it works.

That explains why MCJIT test executable
(build/unittests/ExecutionEngine/MCJIT/MCJITTests) was an X86 binary in my
case. It appears to me that these tests will always fail for
cross-compilation unless modified for remote execution.

I noticed "TARGET_HAS_JIT" flag in Makefile.config. Can I use this
flag to
exclude MCJIT and JIT tests when not set? This will be a simpler change than
modifying the macro.

Thanks,
Jyotsna

TARGET_HAS_JIT seems to be an autoconf thing (also, not really sure how it
works) and has no equivalent in the cmake world. If you do want to use
TARGET_HAS_JIT, please provide an equivalent for cmake users.

Will do that. Thanks!
