Great :))
I wonder if any of the vendors would sponsor a compile farm that would
check that XFree86 compiles fine - and if not notifies whoever made the
changes that break compilation. I believe there was a similar system
used in Mozilla. This way the breakage would be fixed and the snapshots
would at least always compile.
I am not sure how many computers would be needed - today they are faster
and XFree86 does not use C++. Perhaps one or two would be enough.
