Most failures seem caused by the standard library which for some reason 
fails on code like

#include <algorithm>

int main()
{
    char a[ 10 ], b[ 10 ];
    std::copy( a, a + 10, b );
}

I don't have the compiler here to verify that the above fails, but if it 
does, we probably need to submit it to Intel and Dinkumware and see what 
they have to say about it.
