This is becoming interesting. So, would you be in favour of
establishing some kind of "probability of failure" threshold under
which every FTBFS bug stop being severity:serious?

[ In some sense, you have already done that in this report ].

I asked the release managers what to do with packages which FTBFS
randomly, but they didn't give me any useful guideline yet.

Based on your "at some point" above, do you personally think that
probability-based RC-ness is the way to go, and if yes, where would
you put the threshold?

Thanks.
