From master I'm getting 2052 "framework failures" in the testsuite, which all look like the one below. I also get 4468 expected passes, so not every test fails. This is with "sh validate". Yes I know I should get onto Hadrian, and I have a branch for that. But Hadrian isn't really working for me because it's putting build artefacts in my source tree rather than in my build tree (talking to Andrey about that). But I think that old 'validate' is still supposed to work, isn't it? I'm a bit stuck
Oh dear, it looks like this is due to the recent performance tracking patch. It looks like it breaks the symlink tree workflow. I feel like we discussed this a few weeks ago. David, do you recall what we concluded? Cheers, - Ben
