I was making a general point about being careful not to break the build,
and it is probably bad to set a precident that I (or anyone else) will
do other people's dirty-work, this incourages laziness.

Of course they are - which is lucky because I make plenty, and which is
why I wasn't yelling at anyone - but politely pointing out when people
have made mistakes helps to prevent them from making them in future, and
explaining what those mistakes are helps others avoid falling into the
same traps.

If I really wanted to be rude I would just back-out people's changes,
but I don't want to undo anyone's hard work even if it means that I
can't build Freenet for a few hours.
