I don't see any gcc docs for delta, and I don't see it in the contrib 
directory, so I am unsure exactly what it is.

This seems like a reasonable suggestion.  It won't work in all cases 
though.  For instance, if you have an ice-on-invalid-code testcase, then 
stopping after the first error may stop before the ICE, which is not 
useful for reducing the testcase size.  However, I would need more info 
about delta in order to tell whether this is significant.
