Description
When Bisectable stumbles upon a build that has no perl6 executable (there are some builds like this), it just drops the whole thing.
Here is an example:
https://irclog.perlgeek.de/perl6-dev/2017-03-01#i_14185671

Research direction
Start by tracing Bisectable's handling of builds that lack a perl6 executable, using the linked IRC example to reproduce the failure. Confirm that a missing executable no longer causes the entire bisect operation to be dropped, and verify the behavior with the project's relevant tests or bot workflow.
