I have not run the testsuite before, I have run "make check" on the latest svn gcc for C and C++ without any patches, and it fails: # of expected passes 7052 # of unexpected failures 1 # of expected failures 95 # of unsupported tests 341 Would the patch I have be ok if I get the same results? Or do I need to wait until there are no unexpected failures? Thanks Sean
