How would this apply to compile failures? In the cases I'm looking at 
currently, we know that file foo.cpp cannot possibly compile on 
compiler/platform bar because an essential feature is missing. To get more 
concrete, I know that the regex wide character tests will not compile on 
FreeBSD 3.x, because its libraries do not have wchar.h.
