Generated by a tester who can define "breaking" in a fashion that suits
everyone.  I've just had a problem clear up by bumping a machine from
Core2Duo to Core2Quad, that I was almost certain was a crappy Ethernet
cable, 400 ft over spec.

Defining what's "stable" and what's "not" will be the hard part, not
running the tests.
