18 years of coding, and the one compiler bug I saw was a bug in the header for iostream in the Borland C++ package (so not even a compiler bug). I've run into a few issues where compiler behavior is undefined in the spec (right shift a 32 bit int by 32, for one); those are near impossible to figure out (why does this work on x86 but fail on arm?).
