I mean compilation failures. Try checking a --enable-shared compiler on a 
non-gcc3 machine and you'll see what I mean. The tests start to work as soon 
as you install the compiler, that's why a lot of developers don't see it. 
This is a fallout of the shared libgcc stuff. The fix is a bit ugly cause 
ObjC, unlike the other frontends, has no own lang_specific_driver() routine, 
but instead shares it with C.

With my patch only the 3 protocol-related FAILs remained, so you are 
partially right, I fixed only 70.
