Emitting a FAIL explicitly gives writer an alert, otherwise, reviewers
have to screen the test case manually, like what we do nowadays for
duplicated test results.  The test submission criteria is "zero-fail" in 
gdb.sum, and I afraid few people pays much attention on something
suspicious in gdb.log.

That is good to me too.

I don't have a strong opinion on either of them.  I am OK to move on as
what we are doing in these patches.  We can switch to emitting-fail
later if we think it is really necessary.
