People don't necessarily track -current as frequently as they do -stable, or at least I don't. I have windows of time that I can work on freebsd, and if some change has broken current during that window then I have to skip it for another week. Between my own schedule and assorted temporary breakages in -current, I had gone more than a month without getting a successful buildworld.
