for TCS (issue #417) it would be good to have possibility to email/irc notify other developers when only the selected entry fails, this would help to test patches/fixes for rubies via all the tested projects.

Example:

rvm:
- 1.8.7
- 1.9.3
- tcs
matrix:
allow_failures:
- rvm: tcs
email: mpapis@gmail.com

The email should be sent only when tcs fails, not when other tests fail also.
