Subject: 1-test failures on remote queue

I've looked at the possibly-spurious single test failures on the queue for
the past week. There's no obvious single test causing trouble. One time it
was a data-cleaning test that failed with an HTTP error, probably due to
the webservice being weird; that's annoying, but if it only happened once
we should probably let it slide. Twice it was swig_xqj segfaulting, and
that was for the same merge proposal so I'm assuming it wasn't "spurious"
at all. The other three that I found also seemed either completely random
(cosmic rays?) or possibly indicative of a real problem with the merge
proposal.

For the time being, there's not anything obvious to do. If you have a test
run that fails with one or two test failures that seem completely unrelated
to your changes, please do two things:

1. Re-submit your changes by marking the proposal "Approved" again.
2. Email the CDash page for the failing test run to me - and let me know if
the second test run with the same changes does NOT have that test fail.

If any test proves to be unreliable repeatedly, I'll disable it.
