   Short answer: you have to go buy the test-suites. There are 4 of them   
   out there: ACE, Perennial, Plum-Hall, and Nullstone. I vaguely remember   
   that there was one from some indian company, as well.   
      
   The gcc torture tests suite is not too good at validating conformance,   
   unfortunately.
