Well, I think this is one of the main motivations from something like what Thomas F. Herbert proposed in another thread recently, DPDK: Proposal for a patch patch-test integration tree basically, a continuous-integration-type of system should test-build (and probably test) any prospective patch to see that it builds for various targets. In my view, this would be a perfect match for github+travis-ci. Anyway, I'll see if I can dig up an older Ubuntu to build on, unless someone else steps up and tests the patch. (My issue to start with was that the build fails on a 14.04 chroot on a 12.04 host, but I only have access to the chroot there). // Simon
