Hello, Giuliano, thanks for turning my suggestion into a patch!

May I suggest actually checking that the ipa-clones dump file is created
with the same name and the location it would without -o /dev/null? I
think just using any of the normal dump file scanners would do.
There's a larger set of tests in gcc.misc/outputs.exp, where this test
would be a slightly better fit. Copying some of the tests under
"Driver-chosen aux outputs", and some of the link tests that use
'$oaout', changing them to use -o /dev/null without any changes to the
expected output file names, would give us more coverage of expected
behavior than just checking that we just don't get an error.
Thanks again,
