Hi Ziviani,

My suggestion was to put the comment in the CR. I really don't think there 
should be any comment in ProblemList.txt.
This is not an uncommon situation. Tests are often removed from the problem 
list simply because they have not been seen
for a while (and we want to determine if the bug is still an issue) or because 
failures are rare, or possibly even so
hard to reproduce that we want to eventually trigger a failure as part of 
regular testing to help with failure
analysis. We have not added comments in the past to document these problem list 
removals.
