Somewhat non-intuitively, logs are available by clicking something in
the tree in the left column (in particular, the inner-most thing with
a red X).  Do be sure to choose "Logs" in the right pane rather than
"Tests"; "Tests" appears to be a separate feature that we don't use.

The Windows failure appears to be the test_asyncio instability that
has been popping up everywhere the past couple of days.  The Linux
failure looks like a mis-use of Tools/ssl/multissltests.py in the
setup, but I thought I'd seen a checkin go by that removed that.
