I agree that we may not be doing this properly in other packages. However, I still believe in such situations that it's better to blacklist the individual toolchains that are known to be broken, so that if we add another toolchain, we will be able to see if the same bug happens as well or not. Ideally, we should report such bugs to Mentor, but so far, they have never seem to be really interested by bug reports we could make about their toolchains.
