Will you be sending mail about regressions to people who made recent
changes to the compiler, as Geoff Keating's regression tester did?
The list of test failures at your web page only shows C tests; are you
building the other compilers as well?
Several people are submitting test results regularly to gcc-testresults,
and I find the archive of that list very useful. Robert Schiele has his
set up to report bootstrap failures. Besides reporting your own testing
you might find a way to summarize the information from that archive,
which includes a wide variety of platforms.
Thanks for tackling this.
