When where ALL the regression tests last working on ALL configurations (not
counting buggy compilers)?

Iam ok with disabling the md5 part of the test. Iam also ok with someone
replacing the *MDCT when the bitexact flag is set.

Awnsering whenever a program halts or runs forever is
On a turing machine, in general impossible (turings halting problem).
On any real computer, always possible as a real computer has a finite number
of states N, and will either halt in less than N cycles or never halt.
