When Ed says the build is a"hard failure", I assumed that meant the build 
status was "Failed" and would be marked red.  However, in parentheses he says 
"(test failures)".  Typically, test failures mark the build as "unstable", not 
as "failed".  If the build is unstable, I would not expect a "retry on fail" to 
be invoked, since "unstable" is not "failed".

Can you clarify?  Was the build red (failed) or yellow (unstable)?
