IMO, it depends too much on the compiler used. Although we try to
actively contribute all our GCC patches the same way we contribute
our GDB patches, there are always a few that keep missing in the FSF
tree. To have near-clean results, I think you would need to use our
latest GPL'ed binary (we publish one each year). That's why you'll
see me generate C testcases as much as possible, even if the problem
is only showing up in Ada code.
Regardless of that, I don't expect anyone but me to really set their
environment up towards clean results. As long as it's not regressing
in your environment, I'm happy taking take care of accidental
regressions.
