My view is that reasons should be separately in the log file; there should be a fixed set of test names, each of which may be PASS, FAIL, UNRESOLVED etc. in a particular test run. (I know the code reporting ICEs in test names doesn't conform to this; properly that should have separate "test for internal compiler error" test names rather than modifying the name of a failing test if it has an ICE.) -- Joseph S.
