Okay, I'm willing to make it an XFAIL rather than a KFAIL. I remember those threads. The XFAIL feels odd but it does stand for "external" and this bug is indeed a textbook external bug.
As far as making it a FAIL goes, I think David's argument comes down to: people pay attention to FAIL, but not to XFAIL or KFAIL. I really don't like that situation. I see the question as: whether to fight the situation and use more accurate XFAIL/KFAIL rather than generic FAIL, or to acquiesce to situation and give people what they expect to see. I favor the former.
