Re: [PPL-devel] ppl 0.9 make check failures on i686-apple-darwin9

I have verified that there are no make check failures in ppl-0.9 on powerpc-apple-darwin9 with Xcode 3.1. The problems appear to be specific to Macintel. I see the same 5 failures when ppl-0.9 is built with Apple's gcc 4.0.1 or gcc 4.2 compilers (so it is unlikely to be a compiler bug). The failing test cases output is appended below.

Jack,

I will check more carefully, but I believe you should not worry about these failures: they are imperfections of the testsuite (which we will fix, if not already fixed in CVS), not of the library. Your attempts to use the CVS HEAD version of the PPL make a lot of sense anyway. Cheers,
