That was precisely my proposal: when trying to check in changes to a stdlib module, we required that developers ensure that the module's tests, *and* those of its dependents, pass. We would need to add new testing infrastructure to support this expectation by computing (and saving) the dependency graph of the stdlib. I originally suggested build time for this, but now think that it would better be built during an intial full run of the suite.
