I noticed that at least on Darwin PPC -m32 and -m64 we have been passing the test cases...
XPASS: 21_strings/basic_string/element_access/char/21674.cc execution test XPASS: 21_strings/basic_string/element_access/wchar_t/21674.cc execution test in the libstdc++ testsuite. From what I see in bugzilla for PR21674, it seems that it should be fixed on gcc trunk, right? Shouldn't the xfail line be dropped now from those two test cases for the gcc 4.2 release? Jack
