I have a suspicion that the cause of canaries failures is described here: https://groups.google.com/a/google.com/group/chrome-webkit-gardening/browse_thread/thread/d3b3a4fc647e804d In short, bots can run tests prematurely, emitting false failures. I observed this during my gardening, and I think you should check which revisions of WebKit and Chromium bots used while running tests.
