OK, I understood that one.

Interesting. Given the total number of failures we have, it's
practically impossible to track the regressions if the "expected"
failures are not masked, though - especially when changes are made to
something as basic as 'config' or 'type_traits'. We can easily provide
such report, I am just trying to determine what are the use cases. Could
you please elaborate on yours?
