Are there any test suites to systematically test a C compiler "front-end"
against the C89 and/or C99 standard?


I have already tried known "good" C programs to make sure no false errors
are flagged.


But how do I create errors in a way such that all aspects of the language
definition can be tested?


Maybe one of the free C distributions comes with a test suite?


Any suggestions?
