I see the need to make error validation with bugpoint more beginner-friendly, but am worried about situations in which the mode proposed here could confuse beginners (what if the first error isn't the interesting one? or reductions stop too early?). I don't have a better alternative to suggest. Perhaps we could repost @mehdi_amini's writeup in the "Search for a string in the output" section within http://blog.llvm.org/2015/11/reduce-your-testcases-with-bugpoint-and.html, or link to it from the bugpoint docs.
