Yeah I have a machine that I wanted to install x86_64 on too, so I could have a build machine for that arch. I guess "the software" could be pretty simple due to the fact that we don't care about real output all that much (right now, we could always combine this with pacbuild at a later date), but for right now we would simply be making sure packages build with relation to other packages. So it'd be a cvs update, list dirs changed in the update, build packages, bamf. Technically we'd want to use local repos for packages and have the PKGDEST point there, with some db rebuilding after each success. All we're looking at, really, is success/fail and the output (makepkg -L). I don't have time at the moment, but if someone wants to write a 100-200 line bash script for this, that'd be awesome.
