Sorry, as it turns out I found a bug in the way BuildBot calculated the
regressions for the current build.  Unfortunately it wasn't correctly
updating the previous_gdb.sum file, which is used to directly calculate
the regressions against the last build.  The bug has been fixed now; it
has been introduced a few days ago, so not many builds have been
compromised.  Also, the regressions reported *were* valid; the only
problem was that they were being reported over and over for every build.
