I have been trying to keep those up to date the best I can, but usually
I only set them for one compiler version in a series like 2.95.3 or
3.3.1. I try to include the version which is the last known to work in
the "known to work".
The other thing I usually do is when a problem was fixed in 4.1.2 and
4.0.4 I try to keep the "know to work/fail" fields correctly so that we
know that it was fixed in 4.1.2 but failed in 4.1.1. This also allows
us and others to keep track of what was fixed when.
