The clang-tests repository (
http://llvm.org/viewvc/llvm-project/clang-tests/ ) includes an Apple
GCC 4.2 compatible version of the GCC and GDB test suites that Apple
run internally. I'm working on bringing up an equivalent public
buildbot at least for the GDB suite here (
http://lab.llvm.org:8011/builders/clang-x86_64-darwin10-gdb-gcc ) -
just a few timing out tests I need to look at to get that green.
Apparently it's fairly stable.

Beyond that I'll be trying to bring up one with the latest suite (7.4
is what I've been playing with) on Linux as well.
