Real-World Validation | Aburi C/C++ compiler

A C/C++ compiler has to survive real projects, not only small samples. Aburi is tested against pinned revisions of major open-source projects to reveal parser, ABI, lowering, linker, and runtime issues.

Current Validations

Current as of February 2026:

Project Status Notes

Project	Status	Notes
cURL	build + version smoke	Built with a broad CMake profile including common compression and TLS dependencies. Tested via fetching a example website.
Redis	build + runtime smoke	`redis-server` and `redis-cli` boot and basic commands succeed.
Git	build + version smoke	Standard build flags with `git --version` smoke. Passes the git test suite.
PostgreSQL	build + runtime smoke	Builds `psql` and runs a version smoke.
SQLite	build + runtime smoke	`sqlite` builds and database functionality tested.
QEMU	build + runtime smoke	`qemu-system-x86_64` boots.
Nginx, libxml2, libarchive, libgit2	build + version/help smoke	Core tools link and report versions or help output.
libuv	compile + link	Static and dynamic libraries build.
FFmpeg/librempeg, Ghostscript, chibicc, mpv, GStreamer	build or runtime smoke	Some projects require reduced configure profiles or Clang compatibility mode due to the build system used. Basic tasks with these tools (converting Postscript file, JPG, or viewing a video) all work

The project is still early, and differences between local and CI environments along with development churn can expose additional compiler bugs and introduce regressions.
