Certainly, though clocking pre-standard hardware up to the standard
and testing that would only constitute poor testing methodology.
Before becoming even slightly worried, I'd first want to see test
failures on hardware where all components are rated for the conditions
of the test.  Considering the number of manufacturers involved just in
getting all the components on a motherboard to work properly together
at some target clock speed, it's often surprising to consider that the
whole mess works at all.
