I don't see any more recent test results but it looked pretty good
for 4.4 a few months ago:

# of expected passes 2305

No idea off the top of my head. 

You can check out gcc-testing from the rtems cvs repository
and use the scripts there to build a test toolset and run the tests.

Once we get moved, I will be running all the tests again.  The
test build machines are starting to go offline here. :)
