STDCXX-643 [IBM XLC++/AIX] std::exception incompatible with runtime library

Severity:	Incorrect Behavior
Resolution Date:	27/Mar/08 06:07 AM

Description

« Hide

The test fails because a loop counter is trounced on every iteration, preventing the loop condition from failing. A simple workaround would be to move the declaration of the loop variable so as to avoid the problem so that the test can run.

Right. We could work around it. At the same time, it's thanks to the test that we discovered the incompatibility (STDCXX-643), so I'm not sure we should completely wipe out all signs of the problem. I guess this is another case where we could use the Expected Failure extension to the test driver.

Well, we already have an entry in xfail.txt for this. It has been there since r607788. Unless we intend to fix or work around the problem, I think this issue is done.
