Has there been any attempts to provide some compiler compliance test suites from the boost community? I'm thinking of a minimal test suite without any compiler workarounds which tests a compilers C++ compliance. If the compiler compiles and run the suit cleanly they could get a C++/boost compliance award/certification/whatever. This could help and encourage compiler vendors to become compliant. It might not be boost's primary objective but in the end, it might help reduce the number of compiler specific defects we have to deal with. It might also be useful to library developers; "If compiler X doesn't even meet compliance suit #3 we won't bother supporting it".
