make recheck?

Is there a way to rerun only failed tests after a 'make -k check'?
If not, should there be, and how would one go about implementing this
(I know the makefile parts but not the dejagnu bits).

Asking because it could help speed up patch development:
1) hack hack hack
2) make -k check-$whatever
3) go back to (1) until satisfactory
4) git commit patch, undo patch in work tree, rebuild
5) run 'make recheck' to ensure all new failures were already old.

This doesn't satisfy patch submission rules, but for patch series
development it might, in stages before actually submitting.

Thanks,
Ralf
