Perhaps. If we were to require a green dashboard for all platforms before 
release, and use "expected failures" when a compiler/platform cannot deal 
with a certain testcase. Then a "diff" between the old and new expected 
failures lists would tell what fails now that passed previously (and won't 
likely be fixed).
