I had a quick look, and it appears that:

* The test programs take too long to build (someone needs to split them up).
* There seems to be a problem with print_out_template in the 
integer_test.cpp program that is causing many of the failures (only gcc it 
seems will resolve the overload as intended).

If someone thinks they can fix these that would be really cool :-)
