+<para>The <userinput>-k</userinput> flag is used to make the test suite run

+<para>You can compare your results to those posted to the gcc-testresults
+mailing list for similar configurations to your own. For an example of how
+current GCC-3.2.x should look on i686-pc-linux-gnu, see
+<ulink url="http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-testresults/2003-02/msg00204.html"/>.</para>

+<para>Note that the results contain:</para>
+
+<screen>* 1 XPASS (unexpected pass) for g++
+* 26 XPASS's for libstdc++
+* 1 FAIL for libstdc++</screen>
+ 
+<para>The unexpected pass for g++ is due to the use of
+<userinput>--enable-__cxa_atexit</userinput>. Apparently not all platforms
+supported by GCC have support for "__cxa_atexit" in their C libraries, so this
+test is not always expected to pass.</para>
+
+<para>The 26 unexpected passes for libstdc++ are due to the use of
+<userinput>--enable-clocale=gnu</userinput>, which is the correct choice on
+Glibc-based systems of versions 2.2.5 and above. The underlying locale support
+in the GNU C library is superior to that of the otherwise selected "generic"
+model (which may be applicable if for instance you were using Newlibc, Sun-libc
+or whatever libc). The libstdc++ test suite is apparently expecting the
+"generic" model, hence those tests are not always expected to pass.</para>
+
+<para>The failure for libstdc++ is in
+<filename>26_numerics/c99_classification_macros_c.cc</filename> and is a
+long-standing known failure (since at least January 2002) that the developers
