Which platform did you run tests on?  Which port of WebKit did you  
use?  The buildbot at <http://build.webkit.org/waterfall> shows that  
WebKit on Mac is currently passing 100% of the regression tests.   
Results for ports other than Mac and Windows are likely to be  
significantly worse as the developers of other ports have not spent  
much time focussing on passing the layout tests.
