I just had a power failure and one of my Milkyway Workunits came back as a computational error. This got me thinking, what happens to Workunits that get returned as errors? Are they destroyed, or resent to others?

Resend to others. Unless there are already too many errors for that WU, in case of Milkyway that would be 4.
