It seems to me that the first category ("the compiler takes the bitcode 
and generates code without crashing") are tests that should be added to 
the "make check-all" tests in the LLVM subproject, rather than the 
test-suite subproject?
Or if these tests currently don't crash the compiler anymore, the bugs 
must have been fixed, and there should already be equivalent tests?
