An optional test is like no test at all.  No one runs optional tests.  If
the test is supposed to work then it should be mainstream.  If the test
might not work then you better go back and figure out what you're testing.
If the test might not *compile* (which is probably the more severe problem
that people are concerned about) then this idea won't help that at all
unless you want to rework the regression test driver framework as well.
