though in practice - what does that really buy us? as long as an existing
distro HAS the requirements - then non-builds on others are most likely due to
not having the requirements (versions of libs etc.). a nightly build + report
on 1 distro buys us a fair bit - what has broken and how. multiple distro
builds are mostly only useful for making packages (mostly i say - there are
cases where 1 distro does strange things compared to another).

in the end though - this is where the users come in. we can't go maintaining N
distro "chroots" ourselves - there is a point where we stop and users do their
bit. i personally say that we should only maintain a distro chroot tree *IF* we
are going to build PACKAGES for that distro/architecture.
