Cool -- do I send my shipping address to you? :-) How can you make such an expectation?
I don't know what the answer is. We are really caught between a rock and a hard spot. The current path leads to each committer holding a private list of exclude tests. Then when someone says your last mod breaks on my machine, we do a rollback to a stable revision. And then sort of kind of let someone else with different hardware try to fix the patch, commit then wait to see if anyone complains. Tim
