Hi all,

this seems to be a compiler-related issue. I tried the following Versions
of Ubuntu:

Ubuntu Version    GCC Version  Regression Tests
12.04                              4.6.3                    SUCCESS
14.04                              4.8.4                    SUCCESS
15.04                              4.9.2                    2 FAILURES
15.10                              5.2.1                    2 FAILURES

The regression test case were generated with a Moses executable compiled
with gcc-4.6 on Ubuntu 12.04; the tests may fail in environments that are
not identical to the one the regression tests were developed on, because
executables compiled with different compilers may produce slightly
different output, e.g. because their rounding errors differ. This is
obviously an invonvenience for people developing on different versions of
linux, but unless you are actively developing Moses code, you can check for
the latest stable version of Moses here: http://statmt.org/moses/cruise/ and
not worry too much about the regression tests. In other words: If you are
just using moses to run experiments, you should be fine using the latest
stable version of Moses: go to http://statmt.org/moses/cruise/, click on
the commit link of the first commit that says Status:OK, copy the commit
hash from the github page and check out that version in your local
repository, .e.g.

git checkout ec8dbdb94a46e70969490ecc6c4e22fb3a7f9802

then run ./compile.sh

- Uli
