So far I haven't had any failures. Perhaps we should wait for

these emails may occasionally be false negatives.
Ideally we'd get a '-1' comment if the patch doesn't apply to
trunk, no? This would be annoying if there were lots of false
negatives. But it could save folks time, when, e.g., a patch gets
stale, if it's noted in the patch.
Ok, I haven't seen a lot of false negatives so this should work.
I'll post a -1 comment if the build/test fails three times or if I
can't apply the patch.
Should we re-run tests on patches daily, and if something that
previously passed now fails or vice versa, note the change in state?
Ya this would be nice, but I'm not signing up for implementing this
right now.
