Indeed!

On Windows (MSYS) I get several failures that I'm pretty sure have been there for a while. They seem to relate to things like 'printf' not existing. That makes it harder to interpret a Windows validate run.

I wonder if someone (Neil? Ian?) might investigate?

I see some, but not all of those failures on our buildbots, I'll investigate. We had zero failures a few days ago, so I think these are new.

Well, on closer inspection we currently have zero failures on the Cygwin buildbots, for the fast/validate testsuite. I don't have an MSYS build set up, so could someone else try with that?

Cheers,
