You're right, I wasn't around for 0.9.8 beta. :)

So, if I'm understanding correctly, I should send success reports to
-dev, and failure reports to -bugs, along with... the reported (first)
Target in the subject?

There are two Target: lines:

[...]
Target:           darwin64-x86_64-cc
Compiler:         Using built-in specs.
Target: i686-apple-darwin9
[...]

(The first is the argument to Configure, the second is the value of --target.)

However, I'm thinking that if one beta passes, and then the next
doesn't, that indicates a regression that needs to be examined -- so
having the full reports available somewhere indexed would be a good
thing?  (For a spreadsheet, my schema would be to make multiple tabs
-- the first for beta1, second for beta2, and so on.  X axis (each
column) would be the features that have been tested as working on the
platform, Y axis (each row) would be a platform tested.)
