Prove it. What output did you get when you ran NIST PCTS and/or VSX? I think any claims of standards conformance without going through a validation suite and acceptance process is specious no matther which group the claims come from. Same thing goes for iBCS2 or other ABI conformance, for that matter. Terry Lambert terry@cs.weber.edu --- Any opinions in this posting are my own and not those of my present or previous employers.
