I thought about doing that very thing.  Then I decided that it wasn't 
worth my time to do so.  And that even if it was, there's no way that I 
could convince people that my results are genuine.  So I'm not wasting 
my time.

No, I don't think that this would matter enough in different 
implementations.  Assuming that it's a standard compliant 
implementation.  Thus eliding incomplete implementations / early 
implementations.
