So, generally we don't goop up the testsuite with the day to day port stuff when it is being developed.  If the port is finished, and EH can't be done, this type of change is fine.  If someone plans on doing it in the next 5 years and the port is still being developed, there is likely little reason to do this.  People that track regressions do so by differencing, and that easily handles massive amounts of failures seamlessly.

So, my question would be, has is just not been worked on yet, or, is it basically impossible to ever do it?
