I'm not sure why this can be a frustrating thing. I would probably be frustrated if I had to work on the GCJ tester code that tries to accomodate all those differences, yet will never be able to satisfy all circumstances. From a few posts, it seems that GCJ system is already nice enough to point out possible errors, but it certainly is not worthwhile to do much more than that.
The input/output specification is already very clear IMO and following them as verbatim as we can be is our very first task, IMO.
