While preparing to try this, I noticed that the existing compat
patches seem to have an undefined exit status. This is bad, isn't it?
Unless I'm confused, we should add a 'return 0;' to the end of g++.dg/compat/*/*_main.C, e.g.

I haven't seen these fail because of the missing return, but maybe that's just luck.
