What about the nightly builds of world and the output of that? It should
not be too difficult to drop that into a message and send the tail of
that off to committers when the build fails at some stage.

Add a do { } while(1) around it and include LINT (and an alpha cross
build when that is possible) in the build of the kernel and you uncover
most breakages as soon as possible.

As a side effecy you are left with the most recent SNAP build of that
day.
