:::I do remember posts about non-compliant Pascal and C compilers in the 90's but not so much now and if a language states short-circuit evaluation then a compiler that does not preserve that has a major flaw in my book - short-circuit eval. is a feature big enough not to be missed out in a language compilerd test suit methinks. --[[User:Paddy3118|Paddy3118]] ([[User talk:Paddy3118|talk]]) 16:32, 28 April 2015 (UTC)
 
:::: Nowadays an issue is command line options and how they interact with subtleties of the language spec. Another issue, though, is where people have mis-read the language spec and [for example] enforce a constraint in the generated code which was meant in the specification to apply to be a constraint on the code supplied to the compiler. --[[User:Rdm|Rdm]] ([[User talk:Rdm|talk]]) 16:48, 28 April 2015 (UTC)
