I am looking for a program which will test a C
compiler's compliance with the new X3J11 standard.
I need to evaluate a number of compilers for compliance.


Does anything like this exist?


Thanks in advance for any pointers.

[I've heard of lots of C test suites of various qualities, but none yet that
purport to test ANSI compliance. At this point, I'd expect any variance
reported by such a suite to have about at 50% chance of being a bug in the
tests. -John]
