The logic I pointed Jeff at has four orientations, stable, candidate, snapshot and bleed (for future revs, e.g. trunk/ across the board.) What oss-httpd-build doesn't do (at least not yet) are all the permutations of very old components, e.g. APR gen 1.4.x + httpd. I don't have enough cycles to tackle it all, but as the Makefile.checkout phase is enhanced, that's one really interesting aspect to consider (1.4.x gen, 1.5.x gen, the current 1.6.x gen and eventually 1.7.x APR.)
