One thing could help is to check our build logs for Windows (TS builds
are more often broken f.e.). We also automatic notifications for
broken builds. We once send them to this list but some people
complained. We may create a readonly ML for that, and for all
supported platform. For example, a recent broken build (TS) mail would
like:

This is an automatic mail from the rmtoool's build bots.

New build errors have been introduced between
489073b501473fc8d7b21fed8eb72c55e0abee80
and 489073b.

The errors are:

php-5.5, build ts-windows-vc9-x86:
php_open_temporary_file.c, 201, error, C2065, 'tsrm_ls' : undeclared
identifier, main

It makes very easy to identify the gulty commit and fix it.

The code to fetch from git and generate the builds (with log in html
format for review) are in:
