Boost Testing :

It would be nice to have a summary view of failures-by-compiler, as
well as by library.

That way, those of us who have expertise more with a specific compiler,
rather than library, can help get those tests into shape for a release.

Generally, my feeling is that library authors do a great job getting a
library working on conforming compilers, and the subset of compilers
that personally interest them. In order to get the complete coverage
for a release though, it helps for the compiler-specialists to find the
failures they can help with at a glance too.

We have that many libraries now that picking through for the relevant
failures is becoming quite a task!

Obviously I would not suggest upsetting the test summaries at this
stage of a release cycle! But it would be nice to have something ready
to roll out just after the release.
