Beman,

>I have given up on the bash shell and moved to Python.  MUCH easier to 
write.  MUCH easier to debug.  MUCH more readable code.  MUCH easier to get

exactly the results desired rather than an approximation.  MUCH easier to 
use.  Have got the script working for more compilers, too.  Will post 
results soon.
<

With respect to multiple compilers/configurations:  why not make the
compiler and linker invocation a customisation option - either via
environment variables or (better) a configuration file, that way those of
us that have multiple configurations/multiple standard library variants can
easily set the script up to test all of them.  Just a thought...

- John.
