Maybe we should add something to a script that if a compiler shows up in most tests, especially if it's the sole problem compiler for many tests across many libraries. The message could say that "compiler X by operator Y seems to be broken." (My criteria may be too vague for a computer.)
Or, put some dummy test in place that will fail on configuration problems, and only continue with the rest of the test suite if that dummy test passes.
That sounds like a good idea. If a "Hello, world" program won't work, there isn't any point in bothering people with regression notifications. --Beman
