It certainly looks out of date with regards the release note for 1.41.0.

It looks to me as if all the compilers listed on the current
summary.html for the release are "primary platforms", and I don't
understand, therefore, why they aren't all highlighted in bold, and why
they don't appear on the "unresolved issues" page.

Is there something I'm missing?

Not knowing what errors to expect from the release makes it hard for
people who wish to test the beta: I don't know whether the errors I'm
seeing *are* expected or not.
