I think reports for RELENG_3 and RELENG_4 should be sent to -stable rather than here, and sent only if something doesn't build or new warnings appear wrt the previous build; this should be rare enough not to bother -stable people and anyone MFCing should be reading -stable anyway? And I think sending -current reports here is a *great* idea and including kernel builds, not just make world, is also very good.
