Kasper,

TL;DR working on it should be within a week or so.

The main constraint is the disk space on the package builds machines, I'll have 
to stop building packages for 4.3 to accommodate R-devel (yes, disk is cheap 
and all that, but you can't just plug in SSDs into a Mac so more involved...). 
Also as you noted, the plan is to update the toolchain which makes it more 
tricky to build on the same system. The pesky limit of 2 VMs per machine 
combined with the need to check as much as possible in parallel makes it all a 
little more complicated than you would think. That said, I'm working on it and 
it is the plan to make it available ASAP. FWIW the full build takes more than 
24h so I may shut off the other builds for the bootstrap run.

Cheers,
Simon
