GCC's policy is to always add a test case to the Regression Test Suite whenever any bug is fixed. I don't know what their policy is on adding a test case *before* a bug is fixed. You would need to ask on the gcc mailing list. > And is it known any regular set of tests for GCC? > Or GCC's model of testing is only bug messages from users? > Or such sets are only private? Also, you should ask these questions on gcc mailing list. You will get better answers there.
