It's indeed a very low priority issue.
You mention VS2008 and VS2010 PGO compiler bugs. I'm aware of the VS 2010 bugs, but I didn't observe any VS 2008 PGO bug with Python 2.7. Are you aware of any publicly available bug reports?
About the black/white list. I started with a black list, but then I switched to a white list for the following reason: the goal of running the test suite is to generate a reasonable profile. It is not a goal to test anything. Therefore both white list and black listing is possible.
I consider it more likely that a newly added test breaks the PGO build than that an existing test will be modified in a breaking way. Therefore I consider the while list superior for this particular application.
But as you already stated, it is low prio. |
