What is fine on this report? There is completely missing command which
generated this error; whole error message; input files which caused them
and also change or commit.

And what presumably happened? I'm really not going to spend more time on
guessing what reporter could probably might wanted to write into the
report and start looking into crystal ball what could be an issue.

I can say that this issue presumably happened when email operator of
this robot pushed incorrect button and instead of the real report, it
sent test report with content of some random error line from the random
log file.

Are we on the technical discussion about exactness? Or are going to
discuss what who think that what could happened?

Sorry, I do not have time to wait undefined amount of time to access
additional resources which are based on reported details required for
debugging.

Intel, could you please react on this issue? If not, I'm going to add
your robot to my black list. It is not first time when I received such
useless report from you and nobody reacted on it.
