  As I see from night build results, that Intel C++ 10.0 and acc 6.13
also failed to compile:

  The test instantiating valarray<UserClass>::operator{+-/*}= (...)
operators, but they can't be instantiated
because of  UserClass has not provided +,-,/,* operations.

>From standard:

  26.5.2.6 valarray computed assignment [valarray.cassign]
valarray<T>& operator*= (const valarray<T>&);
valarray<T>& operator/= (const valarray<T>&);
valarray<T>& operator%= (const valarray<T>&);
valarray<T>& operator+= (const valarray<T>&);
valarray<T>& operator-= (const valarray<T>&);
valarray<T>& operator^= (const valarray<T>&);
valarray<T>& operator&= (const valarray<T>&);
valarray<T>& operator|= (const valarray<T>&);
valarray<T>& operator<<=(const valarray<T>&);
valarray<T>& operator>>=(const valarray<T>&);
1 Each of these operators may only be instantiated for a type T to which
the indicated operator can be applied. Each
of these operators performs the indicated operation on each of its
elements and the corresponding element of the
argument array.
