Doh.

Looking at the differences between the develop and master 
explicit-failures-markup.xml, looks like most of the things not on master 
need to be there, but cherry-picking everything properly is a pain. Authors 
should be encouraged to move the markup to their repos. There are 
differences in

- beast
- context
- contract (we know about this one)
- coroutine
- coroutine2
- fusion
- hana
- icl
- poly_collection

I think that any further PRs against the global 
status/explicit-failures-markup.xml need to be declined with the suggestion 
that the author moves the markup to the repo.

(This doesn't at present help Lorenzo but if the only changes to cherry-pick 
are his things would be simpler.)
