Well, IMHO any failure in %check is a blocker until it is known why the test
fails.  The tests are there for a reason.  If the test reveals a bug (in the
software package, not the buildsystem or Fedora) - and it is deemed minor to the
operation of the package, it should be reported upstream and the test failure
should be commented in the spec file as a known problem.

If the failure is a bug in the test itself or the test is invalid, the test
should be removed (with a proper comment in the spec file) or fixed.  It should
also be reported upstream.

Blindly ignoring failures is never a good thing.
