Re: prototype of the "expected failures" enhancement (STDCXX-683)

[Mark Brown]

Martin,

Most of the links to the log files are broken. They all point to files
in http://people.apache.org/tmp/. Also, I'm not sure I understand how
rows in the tables are supposed to be arranged now. If I recall, they
used to be ordered alphabetically but after your change 26 comes
before 23, and 23 before 27. Is that intended?

2       26.class.gslice         46230   162
5       23.deque.special        61465   1536
7       27_basic_ios    0       1
