Farid, if this is a simple enough change could you look into
it sometime soon? Otherwise, if you're busy let me know and
I'll open an issue for it. In any case we need to get these
resolved before the release and I'd like us to start getting
things to a stable point.

Greetings Martin.
I think it's likely that we will need to make some changes to the
windows infrastructure.
The cause of the missing legacy tests is twofold. First, the legacy
test executables appear to fail to compile in dynamic builds because
the legacy test driver symbols aren't resolved. This seems to point
to a failure to export them correctly.
Ah. That's something we need to look into here as the legacy
part of the driver isn't in Subversion
Second, the runall.wsf script doesn't pass the names of non-existent
executables to the exec script. Therefore, you don't see any targets
in the COMPILE or LINK states when the exec utility runs.
IMO, this needs to change. The table must show the status
of all the tests, not just those that compiled and linked
successfully.
Unless you see a quick change that your or I could easily
make ourselves I'll ask Farid to do it since he is the
expert on the Windows scripts.
Looking at the runall.wsf and generated .stdcxx_runtests solution, I
believe that the cause of the format messages likely is coming from a
failure to pass the compatibility mode options to the test suite.
Farid, the additional switches that need to be passed to the exec
utility when running the tests are '--compat -x "--compat -O -"'
(minus the single quotes). Hopefully the shell will handle the quote
processing correctly.
That was suspicion as well. Again, unless you see a quick
fix let's wait for Farid to fix it.

I noticed that the legacy tests (like 21_native.exe) are reported
with the status of FORMAT in some of our most recent results (from
this morning) and missing from others.
Andrew, do you have any idea what's going on here? Do we still need
to change the Windows test harness to enable the legacy output mode
in the driver? What about the builds where they are missing?
Legacy tests with FORMAT status:
