We have been doing that for years:
http://dev-www.libreoffice.org/bundles/
That should then make this whole discussion moot then? Just modify the
instructtions to warn newcomers that master *can* be broken, and if they
want a known-good build to start with, go and get a bundle rather than
using clone. Once thye've got a good build they can "git pull" and go
from there.
Cheers,
