I agree to a certain extent, in the sense that the current cost/benefit effort is not worth it. If we had already something like dg-pedantic, the human overhead disappears, but then one could argue that it is still not worth the extra testing time. Unfortunately, such testcases are still required during the review process. Well, since you are testsuite maintainer, I can try to point to this report in the future as to why I didn't bother to add them. ;-)
