We don't know the validator's interface. It is undocumented. We're currently testing what it accepts and rejects by running native vsa.exe or psa.exe and see if it accepts the shader with validation on or off.
(the validator is implemented in d3d9.dll, not d3dx9.dll)

So implementing such a test is not trivial.
