Weekly Falcon Test Overview 2009-01-16

[Hakan Kuecuekyilmaz]

Dear Falcon fellows,

since my last report we fixed around 8 bugs and we have
1 new test! We have a new scavenger code which fixed quite
some memory leak like bugs.

The full test overview is located at:
https://intranet.mysql.com/~hakank/weekly_falcon_test_overview.php

For our external guests, I have a blog entry here:

Good news of the week:
   - Lot's if bug fixes coming in.
   - Date related test regression on big-endian machines
   is fixed now.

Concerns of the week.
   - win64 our Windows 2003 running in VMware does not shut
   down via automated script.
   - I am still not able to include my Solaris 9/SPARC workstation
   into WFTO due to
   http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=34866
   However building with Sun Studio 12 works and I will try to add
   my SPARC workstation into WFTO in the coming weeks.

   - Real machines have city names.
   - Virtual machines (VMware) have this naming scheme:
