I'm not confident we know what clean results are for all the primary
platforms, i.e. that anyone has tracked what failures are regressions and
what aren't (which requires testing the FAILing tests with older
compilers, not just presuming that a FAILing test not in a previous
release isn't a regression). I know what the mainline testsuite
regressions are cross-platform (bug 21541), on i686-pc-linux-gnu (bugs
21630 and 21653) and on hppa2.0w-hp-hpux11.11 (bug 21654) but not for the
other platforms.
