I have started tagging my auto-builds as you suggest. It should be easy
enough to push to a repo.or.cz repository. Although I'm not sure of the
utility of auto-publishing this information. Who is going to look at it?

Also, if there is interest in an automated "this is now broken on
platform X", I think the interesting thing is not "what was the last
passing state" but rather "what is the output of 'make test' for the
failing state." So:

I had assumed a workflow more like "it passes 99% of the time; in the
remaining 1%, the cron job kicks off a message to the owning user, who
then investigates and/or writes a bug report to the list."

In that case, I think the interesting automation is making a problem
report from a failed case.
