Topic: standard compatibility test

Are there any standard source code compatibility tests being developed with
the standard.  In other words, is there a body of source code which
utilizes all c++ features and more importantly all iostream and STL
features to create some predictable output from a fixed input?   I would
think that this would be an important step in the standardization of a
language.  It would be an good way to test compilers' and header files'
compatibility.  Perhaps different levels of test would be required for the
different stages of standardization...

Any thoughts?
