It's a question of what you call "good results". If there are bugs in
the kernel sources which only show up with a really aggressive HEAD
compiler, then IMHO it's a good result to see the compiled kernel crash,
just because there actually *is* a bug.
Companies however tend to accept a slower/more bloated/whatever software
(produced by an older compiler) in order not to start hunting down the
remaining (and possibly hard to find) bugs...
