Point taken. I was in a discussion some time back with Greg and some
other people and we concluded that unless the system mails you when
something breaks it won't make a difference. And it mustn't flood you,
just be very precise.

Actually the autobuilder at kernel.org helped me out but then stopped
building my trees at some point, but that was nice and the same thing
doing boots would be great.

(However I did go in and fix a few build errors in linux-next after
reading on Rothwells autobuilder kisskb some time ... but it was more
a few-off thing.)
