It would be easy to file bugs when builds fail but it would be hard to do this constructively. For example, there are basic things like checking that the bug isn't already filed which would be hard to automate. You need to look at the build log to see why the build failed then look at the BTS to see if the bug is there already. There are also things like known architecture issues like buggy compilers or library builds that aren't really bugs in the packages themselves. -- "You grabbed my hand and we fell into it, like a daydream - or a fever."
