Does the Security Policy list the compiler?  When I did this, years ago,
I think we did not have to specify the compiler even when we applied
for our algorithm certificates.  That seemed very, very wrong, since one
of the changes most likely to break a highly optimized implementation of
an algorithm is a change to the compiler!
