So is it Ok to import testcases (in this case, from Apple's own GCC) without a copyright assignment ? :-) If we're merging from a very old branch, with all the updates and changes required (and also, the changes required to support the GNU runtime), it would be helpful if we can test the final result against the same testcases used in Apple's GCC to make sure the resulting compiler (which will undoubtely have different internals) is at least not diverging too much in terms of behaviour. Thanks
