Hi, I have a few problems with req_interp tests. First, req_interp doesn't actually skip the test, it runs it but expects it to fail. This causes problems when testing stage 1 compiler because 629 req_interp tests are run for no reason. Ideally I think req_interp would skip the test, and for the error messages ("not build for interactive use" etc.) we'd have a few stage 1 tests (maybe we alrady have this). This would make the testsuite much faster for testing stage 1. Second, combination of req_interp and compile_fail currently doesn't work, because req_interp makes a failing test pass, but compile_fail expects the test to fail. See T3953 as an example. Making req_interp skip the test fixes this problem as well. So I'd like to make req_interp skip the test instead of expecting it to fail. Any objections to this? Ömer
