Would it be possible to also automatically determine some sort of
bit-rot status?  What I had in mind was an automated process that would
apply each patch to HEAD on a daily basis and report whether the patch
still applies cleanly and still allows all regression tests to pass on
at least one platform.  If and when the result of these tests changes
from pass to fail, the patch submitter would be automatically
notified.  

The patch status could then also show the last time at which the patch
applied cleanly, and the last time that regression tests ran
successfully.
