No, I don't see it boiling down to that. To me it seems like a simple 
overreaction. So, a newly-added port is broken -- what's the big deal? 
You'd be right expecting the committer to  examine the error-log 
himself... It is just computers working -- so the humans, present 
company included, can do fun things.

On the contrary -- as long as the "should" remains quoted, I intend to 
do the same thing: /commit, what I sincerely believe is working code/. 
Mat is already convinced, I *must* follow, what you acknowledge is just 
a recommendation -- on the strength of his creating a rule out of void. 
Rights not exercised are rights lost, and all that :-)

Believe it or not, I did ask for suggestions before committing -- 
sending the shar of the would be port to the committers of <go.mk> 
(because go@FreeBSD.mk is blocked to non-subscribers). Having received 
no immediate replies, I figured, I'll see, what Poudriere would say -- 
still don't understand the scale of the blowback...
