For some notoriously unstable client tests, we need the ability to 
automatically retry them a few times. This can be achieved with a simple 
loop around running jtreg from RunTest.gmk and by using the 
-status:error,fail parameter on the retry runs. This parameter was fixed 
to actually work in this way in jtreg 4.2 b15.
