Thanks for pointing to the playground branch. Didn't quite get what
it's about at first, but as the CI listens to it, then it makes a lot
of sense. Tests are not conclusive for now, issue with autoconf2.7
(already raised in another thread).

One question, about proper usage here: If something is promoted from
playground to master, do you merge branch or keep a smooth history in
master? I have the feeling that whatever commit is done in playground
is meant to stay in playground, hence the name.
Depends on what you are doing in playground and the whether you want those
changes propagated back into master?
If you are trying out stuff that is experimental, keep it in playground, but if
you are working around issues and resolve it in playground, then clean it up,
and merge the final tweak back into master, which gives it another CI run to
check you did not do, or fail to do, something that would affect the build.

noarch, simple enough. Custom `src_compile` no longer needed. Built
packages are the same size with or without this (and no such step in
Gentoo ebuild). Must have been fixed in their build system at some
point in time.

Care to clone the repo https://cygwin.com/git/cygwin-packages/iso-codes.git,
change to the playground branch, and update the cygport, where I did a couple of
commits for an NMU proposal to 4.9 a few years ago that went nowhere, and do a
push to run a CI build (any maintainer can push to any playground branch of
other packages), then post the links to the commit(s), and the CI log?
