I sent this to the wrong list perhaps. In any case, here we go : Dennis ---------------------------- Original Message ---------------------------- Subject: # of unexpected failures 768 ? From: "Dennis Clarke" <dclarke@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Sun, October 30, 2011 19:28 To: gcc@xxxxxxxxxxx -------------------------------------------------------------------------- I'm not too sure how many things changed from 4.6.1 to 4.6.2 but I am seeing a really large increase in the number of "unexpected failures" on various tests. With 4.6.1 and Solaris I was able to get reasonable results : http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-testresults/2011-07/msg00139.html Then if I use the resultant compiler from a 4.6.1 build I get a massive increase in failures on both i386 and Sparc : http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-testresults/2011-10/msg03286.html and thus far on Sparc I see : === gcc Summary === # of expected passes 69236 # of unexpected failures 768 # of expected failures 235 # of unresolved testcases 1 # of unsupported tests 1240 /opt/bw/src/GCC/gcc-4.6.2-SunOS5.8-sparc/gcc/xgcc version 4.6.2 (Blastwave.org Inc Thu Oct 27 11:33:20 GMT 2011) and : === g++ Summary === # of expected passes 26251 # of unexpected failures 101 # of unexpected successes 1 # of expected failures 169 # of unresolved testcases 1 # of unsupported tests 496 /opt/bw/src/GCC/gcc-4.6.2-SunOS5.8-sparc/gcc/testsuite/g++/../../g++ version 4.6.2 (Blastwave.org Inc Thu Oct 27 11:33:20 GMT 2011) This seems blatantly wrong. At what point does one throw out the result of a bootstrap as not-acceptable ? With any non-zero value for "unexpected failures" ? Also, I see bucket loads of these : FAIL: g++.dg/pch/wchar-1.C -O2 -g -I. (internal compiler error) What should I think about an "internal compiler error" ?
