Sorry, but I don't understand the nature of the problem.

The output for a passing test was not  available before.

Would you prefer to see the full output for the passing test if warnings
were detected?
Generating separate file for each passing test with warnings would result
in a massive files bloat. I tested it for gcc6.0 and the disk usage
increased from 30MB to 120MB because a lot of small files was generated. Of
course I could do it if that was acceptable.

Or is it something else?
