From the svn log it looks like the tests are intended to fail? However I would prefer tests that are designed only to fail when problems occur. Otherwise we end up with problems with our automatic build and test scripts.
Sorry about that, I just wanted to make sure the tests would actually fail on all the builders before the bug in chararray is fixed. I just checked in a change that disables the failing portions of the test.
For things that you don't expect to be platform specific, there is no need. For things that you do expect to be platform specific on platforms that you cannot access, please ask for volunteers. Make an SVN branch if the changes are extensive.
Branches may also be built using the buildbot.
What is the procedure for requesting this? Do we just email you and ask for the buildbots to build a particular branch? -- Robert Kern "I have come to believe that the whole world is an enigma, a harmless enigma that is made terrible by our own mad attempt to interpret it as though it had an underlying truth." -- Umberto Eco
