I think it is a good idea. It is always interesting to know what fails 
in those systems (and what might break them)...

Since you are talking about 125/252 tests failing, you made me remember 
a minor problem I have with FATE: in any configuration where h264 was 
miscompiled, it is hard to see in FATE if anything else is broken or not 
(the page shows only a few of the tests failing, normally all h264)...
