Now, this looks scary, onless one figures out that there is an error in interpreting regression results, and only 51 failures seem to be from non-broken platforms :-)

The wording is intended to scare developers into fixing bugs :)
Arkadiy's point is not that the 1570 looks scary, but that it should say either:

Oh, I see. Thanks Arkadiy, Stephan; it should be fixed now. Doug
