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
