I most definitely agree. The choice to run 'make check' for the current
runs is quite deliberate to ensure that the current worker nodes
(executing the builds) are at minimal risk of crashing. Of course, the
goal is to run the full testsuite. But that will need a bit of work at
this point, because crashing the worker nodes is a bit of a problem
right now. It is an important problem to resolve either way, since e.g.
frysk has accomplished a few machine crashes in the past as well.
Part of this will be trying to capture as much data as possible in the
event of a crash.
