Yes, that's a good question.

For glsl-fs-user-varying-ff, it was probing pixels for particular values
(or rather, probing for any value *other* than a particular value) after
invoking undefined behavior. That was bogus and Eric patched it.

For texture_integer_glsl130, the test actually computes a new random
color on every run. That's a very un-useful thing for the test to
do. (Though the failures at some random values might still be driver
bugs, they also might have nothing to do with my patches---and that was
what was annoying here.)

I'll follow up on the piglit list with my ideas for addressing this bug
in the test.

And yes, fixing the tests is better than deleting them. My apologies for
my impatience.

-Carl
