Bear in mind, if you would like, you can help contribute to the effort
by just downloading snapshots every now and then and running your
testsuite and emailing the results to gcc testresults mailing list.
And if testing shows up regressions in the compiler or runtime
library, to file bug reports promptly noting when last it worked, and
when exactly it failed.

PASS: unique name of testcase
FAIL: unique name of testcase
and for the names of the testcases to be stable, and for the total
number to remain relatively constant (monotonically increasing over
the years of course).
